What do you guys in R&S think about the newly discovered portrait of a woman in the old Van Gogh painting?

I use to take an art history class at the Art Institute in Chicago and I think it’s really cool that they discovered this. It shows either a large complexity in Van Gogh or he was just short on paper.
What do you think?

Lol Bob Ross vs. Van Gogh. I’ll take Van over Bob. Van Gogh drunk absinthe.
I did not know Van Gogh drank Absinthe….Thank you for that.
I’ve heard it said, that if we close our eyes….when we open them again…..that which we see, belongs to us.
I suppose we only see what we choose to see. With time, we may look at the same visual once again, and see it with new eyes, from a new perspective.
Two people will often see the same view….completely differently.
Spiritually and Artistically……there is always more to be found, when we see beyond the obvious…..and yet, we may look at the same scene many times, and never really see….the Artwork, in the same way the Artist does.
