Description by the author

Denne rute er omtrent den, som Vincent van Gogh tog til Courrières. Der ville han "se lyset" og indse, at kunst var hans kald, ikke prædikenen.

Vincent van Gogh gik fra det belgiske Borinage til Courrières, som på det tidspunkt husede kunstneren-digteren Jules Breton. Van Gogh beundrede Breton som maler.

Han foretog udflugten i den barske vinter 1878-1880, som han nødigt overlevede i den bidende kulde. Men der så han lyset. "Jeg vil tage min blyant op igen, som jeg kastede væk med stor opgivenhed, og begynde at tegne igen," skriver han til sin bror Théo efter sin tilbagevenden til Cuesmes.
