Even ones who didn't know of the Dutch Master, wanted in on it. After all, it was being touted as one of those big-ticket experiences that was only on display for a limited amount of time.
As Starry Night melted away into Wheatfield of Crows for the thousandth time, more people poured into the tent, looking for a place to lie down, rest against, and be a part of Van Gogh's landscape for an hour or so. Was it hypnotic?
