Vincent van Gogh Photo Awards 2025

Through the eyes of Van Gogh

The theme for the 5th edition of the VINCENT VAN GOGH PHOTO AWARD is ‘En Route’. Everyone in this world is on a journey. The journey and the destination are very different for each person. Let your creativity run wild, because in every scene and every encounter, there lies an opportunity for a beautiful story. Be inspired as Van Gogh was. See how your photos become evidence of the beauty you encounter along the way.
Participate in this photo contest and have a chance to win the grand prize of 1000 euros. Participation starts from € 15, and all proceeds go to charity: ‘Terre des Hommes’. Their mission is to protect children by preventing and stopping child exploitation. Visit www.tdh.nl to learn more of what they do.
