Johanna van Gogh-Bonger

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johanna van Gogh-Bonger (4 October 1862 - 2 September 1925 ) was the wife of Theo van Gogh, art dealer and sister-in-law of the painter Vincent van Gogh. After the death of Vincent and her husband she worked assiduously on editing the brothers' correspondence, producing the first volume in Dutch in 1914. She also played a key role in the growth of Vincent's fame and reputation through her donations of his work to various early retrospective exhibitions.
