On the light at the end of the tunnel

From a letter by Van Gogh dated 3 January, 1882:

"It's gratifying, isn't it, Theo, when there's a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel, and I'm seeing a little bit of light now. It's gratifying to draw a human being, something alive -- it may be damned difficult, but it's wonderful anyway."
