New Vincent Van Gough Painting Identified

The painting: Sunset at Mountmajour, was recently identified as one of Mr. Van Gough. It has been found in a Norwegian's private art collection. It was identified by the letters, artistic materials and style that was incorporated with the painting. It is the first full sized canvas that has been discovered since 1928, and will be held on display on September 24th, at the Van Gough Museum in Amsterdam. The museum director had been brought this painting once before in 1990, but denied the authenticity because it had no signature. With more recent technology, and a two-year investigation, the researchers confirmed the suspicions about Sunset at Mountmajour.
