Slide 16 - Tekstslide

Answer: In the dark window on the top floor of the house behind Vincent's, a white dot is missing.

Slide 17 - Tekstslide

Ask the class if they have ideas about what that white dot could be. It looks as if the window is open and someone inside is wearing a white cap. But it could also be something very different.
Which difference was the hardest one to find? Did the differences make the painting completely different, or did they not really matter very much?
