After Vincent van Gogh’s passing, his works were managed by his brother Theo and his wife Johanna van Gogh-Bonger. Their son, and Vincent’s nephew, Vincent Willem, founded the Vincent van Gogh Foundation in 1962. Together with the State he build the Van Gogh Museum, in which the family collection was placed on permanent loan to make sure that it got managed and preserved for future generations. The Van Gogh Museum houses the world's largest collection of artworks by Vincent van Gogh, and owns more than 200 paintings and 500 drawings. Part of this collection are world famous paintings like Sunflowers, Almond Blossom, and The Potato Eaters.
In August 2017, Erasmus University published a large-scale study of the reputation of the 18 most famous art museums around the world. The Van Gogh Museum was voted number one across Europe and number two globally.
The museum’s mission is to ‘make the life and work of Vincent Van Gogh and the art of his time accessible to as many people as possible in order to enrich and inspire them’.
