Ah, I hope to live to 87 and drink from the goblet of life to the dregs.

At this point in time (1873) Vincent (age 20) was viewing paintings from the perspective of an art dealer, which was his profession at the time. He had not yet really begun to draw or paint. He was writing to his brother Theo, who was also an art dealer
Yesterday I saw an exhibition of Belgian paintings, which included various old acquaintances from the last Brussels Exhibition. There were various beautiful things by A. and Julien de Vriendt, Cluysenaar, Wouters, Coosemans, Gabriël, De Schampheleer, etc.
