Gogh's display at Les XX, 1890, in Brussels is an important testament to
the recognition he received amongst avant-garde peers during his own
lifetime. Participation in the annual exhibition of Les XX was for
members and by invitation only. Van Gogh's choice proves that he was
going for more than a simple selection of paintings he considered
superior, but that he was willing to provide a well reasoned summary of
his years of work in Provence.
