To whom it may concern,

I have watched nightline tonight (18/10/2011) and I was shocked when I saw the news about Vincent Van Gogh artist. I have one of his artist (Starry Night) hanging on my bedroom but please do advise me if you know anywhere they will help me to find out more information about this picture.
You can contact me via email and I'm looking forward to hear from you.

Kind regards,

Hola Koloamatangi.

I enjoyed hearing about this story, but I was also disappointed in the blatant mispronounciation of VanGogh's name during the newscast. Seeing as how this artist is legendary, I believe that he deserves the respect of at least having his name pronounced properly. There are people in the art world right now who are most likely up in arms.
