Trivial question

And now for something completely different. Tell me what and where this is:

Good Morning @LayLow,

Vincent van Gogh’s gravestone?

Regards…

Uwe

You would think so, but no and yes!..

The gravestone of his brother, who was born dead in 1852?

BINGO!!!

Vincent van Gogh was indeed the first Vincent, and born dead in 1852. THE Vincent van Gogh (the painter) was born exactly 1 year later in the city of Zundert in The Netherlands.

The graveyard and the church (van Goghkerkje) where Vincent (junior) is burried, can be found on several paintings of Vincent (Senior), before he left for his travels to Belgium and France. The house were both were born is about 300 meters away from the graveyard and receives much attention from many from all over the globe. Very few know about little Vincent about 300 meters away where he rests quitely and alone.

The exact location of the grave. The photo was taken by myself.
