Van Gogh Museum and Apple Launch Digital Puzzles on Apple Arcade
The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam has partnered with Apple and BorderLeap to release a series of digital puzzles featuring Vincent van Gogh's paintings on the Illustrated app, available on Apple Arcade for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. The collaboration marks the museum's 50th anniversary, with puzzles rolling out throughout 2023. Each puzzle includes a narrative introduction about the artwork's history. The initial set focuses on van Gogh's Paris period (1886–1888), part of a gallery called 'Van Gogh's Early Years' that chronologically explores his development as a young artist. Illustrated already collaborates with numerous international artists.
