“Two stained glass windows that inspired the young Vincent van Goghhave been verified as those in a modest Hampshire church.
Van Gogh saw the designs while living and working in London and wrote passionately about them to his brother, Theo.
In the years since his death in 1890 academics have pored over the artist’s writings but have never found the windows he enthused over.
Art historian Max Donnelly has finally established that the windows are located in St Andrews church in Owslebury, near Winchester.”
