Charlie, thanks for sharing this. I must confess that I wasn't that aware of Van Gogh's love for the pipe. I appreciate the new info.

Nice. Interesting that tobacco was a significant expense. It’s too bad the artistes didn’t reap much benefit from their work.

Ser Jacopo has a whole series of pipes based on the pipes in Van Gogh's paintings called Picta Van Gogh. They also make pipe series based on other artists that often used or painted pipes in their art. I have one from the series Picta Magritte, shown below. They're all rather pricy but beautiful pipes, even though in the case of Van Gogh's, his pipes are hard to duplicate sometimes as the paintings are often rather impressionistic.  |
