Perhaps using a strong color vision deficiency (dichromat)   simulation was the wrong approach. How about carrying out the  simulation by removing the middle portion of normal color vision, maybe  then I could see van Gogh\u2019s pictures in a better light?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The color choices for van Gogh&#8217;s popular paintings seem less out there with the filters.
