Not many websites can claim a dispensation or official approval from the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, but this site can claim just that. Created by David Brooks of Canada, this site contains not just some of Vincent van Gogh's oeuvre, but all of it. That’s an impressive amount of material, and it includes 874 letters, 133 letter sketches, and all 10 of his graphic works. Visitors are most welcome to scroll through the homepage to find sections that contain all of the aforementioned material organized by subject matter, date of creation, and a smattering of works inspired by Van Gogh as well. Brooks has also added a set of brief commentaries on Van Gogh's paintings and his own "InSites" into such classic pieces as "Orphan Man with Top Hat" and his 1887 "Self-Portrait".
