Additional quotes by Charley Toorop
Vincent van Gogh was already there for me even before I started painting myself, actually during the time I became aware. It was the first dispute with my father [ Jan Toorop ] who saw it so differently, for me he was the breakthrough to a new world. It is always a real event to see his work.. (translation from original Dutch: Fons Heijnsbroek)
(original Dutch: citaat van Charley Toorop's brief, in het Nederlands:) Later, toen F. [Henk Fernhout, haar vroegere man, tot c. 1916-17; hij was alcoholicus] meer en meer uit huis was, meer en meer geschilderd, m'n eigen apart leven – behoud ook van mijn zenuewen (die overigens al lang kapot waren).
