Painted during one of Van Gogh\u2019s most feverishly productive stretches,\u00a0the painting captures a bright yellow coach waiting in the dusty courtyard of an inn in Arles. The scene is tied to the writer Alphonse Daudet\u2019s Tartarin de Tarascon, a satirical novel Van Gogh was reading at the time. The book features a weary stagecoach reminiscing about its life.<\/p>\n<p>After passing through the hands of Parisian dealer P\u00e8re Tanguy and Italian sculptor Medardo Rosso\u2014who reportedly hid it in his attic after friends mocked it\u2014Tarascon Stagecoach\u00a0ended up in South America,\u00a0effectively becoming\u00a0the first Van Gogh to cross the Atlantic. In 1950, New York businessman Henry Pearlman bought it in a whirlwind deal involving cash, four lesser works, two Renoirs and a Soutine.<\/p>\n<p>For decades, Tarascon Stagecoach\u00a0has been part of the Pearlman Foundation\u2019s long-term loan to Princeton University Art Museum, occasionally touring internationally. But its new homecoming will be permanent: after a stint at LACMA, the painting will travel to Brooklyn in autumn 2026 and to New York\u2019s MoMA in 2027, before returning to L.A. alongside six other works from the collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of Vincent Van Gogh\u2019s most vibrant moments on canvas is coming to Los Angeles: Tarascon Stagecoach\u00a0(October 1888),&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":337133,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1037,1582,276,29645,2961,224,5337,29646],"class_list":{"0":"post-337132","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-art","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-california","11":"tag-categories-art","12":"tag-la","13":"tag-los-angeles","14":"tag-losangeles","15":"tag-news-art"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115448792001183196","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/337132","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=337132"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/337132\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/337133"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=337132"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=337132"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=337132"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
