This depends completely on the pronunciation of Gogh to rhyme with "go". This is an Americanism. van Gogh was Dutch and his name is pronounced with the "gh" sounded as a gutteral. It is most definitely not silent as the Americans would have you believe.

Guttural consonants

The word guttural is derived from the French and Latin denoting a sound coming from the throat.

The concept of gutturality is not entirely objective, but a guttural sound is generally believed to be one which is pronounced with the dorsum of the tongue and/or at any point behind the hard palate, including the soft palate, the uvula or the pharynx. In scientific discourse, the more precise terms indicating place of articulation, such as uvular consonant, are generally preferred.

Please note that this is not an anti-American post, just a statement.
