VINCENT SAID SMOKING A PIPE WAS CURE FOR THE BLUES

WHEN VINCENT WAS 19, he wrote his brother Theo a letter about pipe smoking. Here is a short passage of that letter:

 

Theo, I strongly recommend you to smoke a pipe; it is a remedy for the blues which I happen to have had now and then lately. July 1873

 

Theo was in London at the time.
