I was indulging my bibliomania while engaged in vinicultural pursuits, okay, so I was drinking wine and browsing Amazon books, and came upon  Sonia Castaño's "Van Gogh in La Mancha".  Why not La Mancha? Maybe Van Gogh's stay at the asylum in St. Remy was fake news and he slipped over the border into Spain.  In any case, it goaded me to see the exhibit at The Met titled "Van Gogh's Cypresses" which ends on the 27th of August.

Of all the collections, Pertegaz’s was the most expensive; Pedro Rodriguez’s, the most conservative, Elio Berhanyer’s, futuristic and Lino’s, the most elegant.
