Papers Found in Van Gogh's Former Home Bring His Time in London to Life

 

A cache of papers and items dating from the period of Vincent van Gogh's stay in London has been recovered from the artist's former home, shedding new light on his time in the United Kingdom, CNN reports. 
The items, which include insurance documents, a prayer book and several scraps of paper with painted watercolor flowers, were found under floorboards and in the attic timbers of the house at 87 Hackford Road near Brixton, south London.
The property's owners, Jian Wang and Alice Childs, discovered the documents while renovating the three-story, early-Victorian terraced house, which they bought in a dilapidated condition in 2012.
