Van Gogh in
Chez Bataille
Vincent, his brother Theo and Theo’s close friend (and later brother-in-law) Andries Bonger dined together almost every day at Chez Bataille, a cheap eatery in Montmartre. There, Vincent made the drawing Window in the Bataille Restaurant. It was customary for single men to eat in restaurants at the time and doing so was easy and cheap.
