45-year-old Thai rock singer Heruti Moonbounce (which, incidentally, has a scientific degree in the field of visual arts) six years ago in one of the antique shops of Bangkok, acquired for $ 23 a beautiful picture. A few years later she was invited home specialist-critic, which told her that maybe painting with winter trees is one of the once-lost works by van Gogh himself.
The woman gave a picture on surveys of local experts, and they confirmed her suspicions. But to be sure for all hundred percent, Haruta contacted the van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.

According to preliminary data, the painting dates back to 1888, and the great artist wrote it two years before his death.
If experts confirmed the authenticity of the painting, the Thai singer intends to sell it to a collector or Museum, as they will not be able to provide the canvas needs security. For the original van Gogh a woman can gain several million dollars.
Is the landscape painting that singer Haruthai “Au” Muangbunsri bought at a Bangkok antique shop is really a long-lost Van Gogh? https://t.co/HNfWerFfaq
