▍原文

Under the gaze of Van Gogh, Robyn is buffing her client's nails. Laden with primers and polishes, a long table beneath the Dutch master's self portraits has transformed the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam into a nail salon.

The museum's director Emilie Gordenker hopes this protest, along with others across the Netherlands, will highlight what she believes is an inconsistency in government policy.

Under Dutch rules, museums, theatres, bars and cafes aren't allowed to open, but hairdressers, beauticians and gyms can. That's why beauticians were offering cherry-blossom and starry-night nail art inspired by the master.
