VAN GOGH ARRIVES IN YOKOHAMA

VAN GOGH ARRIVES IN YOKOHAMA, a photo by roberthuffstutter on Flickr.

The exact date of Van Gogh's arrival in Yokohama is still uncertain. Searching through the records is time-consuming, thus an estimated date of arrival will be assigned after a bit more research. Van Gogh is the figure with the hat nearest the gangplank. This image gained through channeling and concentration.

After more channeling, it has been assumed that Vincent's voyage deposited him in Hong Kong, thus he had some time there to find passage to Japan. Through intense meditation, it has been found that his original sailing was from Hong Kong to Nakasaki where there was a substantial Dutch settlement. Because of Typhoons, the port for arrival was changed to Yokohama.

YOKOHAMA STREET SCENE 1880S
Imagine, for a moment, the unbelievable transformation of Yokohama from 1880 to 1980.

Imagine too, if Vincent Van Gogh, had, indeed, visited Japan secretly to gain a new perspective on life and to gain new subject matter. If Van Gogh had visited Yokohama, I doubt that he would have ended his life, but would have been transformed and would have been victorious over his depression and despondent state of mind.
