Van Gogh's Art Now Adorns Vans Shoes

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam announced a series of limited-edition Vans featuring patterns based on his paintings: "Skull" (1887), "Almond Blossom" (1890), "Sunflowers" (1889) and van Gogh's "Self-Portrait as a Painter" (1887-1888) as well as a shoe that uses writing from one of his letters, including stamp and address, as a pattern.

A portion of each sale goes back to the Van Gogh Museum to help with funding and preservation.
