An obsession with sunflowers, a mutilated ear, and a melancholic temperament; these are just a few characteristics of a truly great artist: Vincent van Gogh. He spent years in relative obscurity, putting his depression onto canvas, only to become one of the most celebrated artists of all time. But can these innocuous details really summarize such an iconic figure in the art world? Let's explore the life of Vincent van Gogh and discover the man behind the art.

Wow what a great story and a man. Such a tragic life yet a huge legacy left behind!

@CuriousMuse 3 года назад

Can’t agree more! A difficult life but such a great legacy 🙌🏻

@divox9pqr Год назад

He felt things….emotions with such intensity that it would put people off. He was a man who was ahead of his time. It makes me sad that he never found anyone male or female to comfortably receive his love and attention. I can’t help but think his longing for a commune of artists was a desire for something deeper.

@LisaHawkinsHotJava Год назад

It seems his brother Theo filled much of that personal 1-to-1 longing for companionship and understanding. Theirs was an exceptionally unique relationship. Though Theo is supposed to have died of syphilis, I can't help but wonder if he was so distraught upon Vincent's passing that he lost his will to live - after all, Theo died about six months later and also at a tragically young age. But Theo did have a wife and child, something Vincent aspired to but, sadly, it didn't quite happen for him.

He cut off his ear to gift to a women he had just met. I don’t think anyone would “comfortably receive” that

Van Gogh's mind was a natural creative desire in he's spirit. How he felt is what most if not all Artists do, while challenging themselves. We are all speculators in how art done by humans bring forth those subjective questions.

3:54 Van Gogh hated the portrait Gauguin painted of him saying it's "certainly me, but me *gone mad."* Vincent's color intensity combined with emotion is what draws me to his wonderful art! Great presentation, well done! I should note that Van Gogh DID sell one... just one painting: _The Red Vineyard_ to Anna Boch for about 400 francs about seven months before his death.

However Romantic, it was Gauguin who cut of Van Gogh's ear in a drunken brawl with Gauguin's fencing sword. It was a glancing downward blow. The "suicide" was two teenagers with a gun playing "cowboy" (complete with costume) and shooting Van Gogh. They were acquaintances of Van Gogh and Van Gogh decided to take the blame.

@CuriousMuse Год назад

Well, it’s a disputed theory. Curators at the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam stand by the theory of self-mutilation.

@MarkSeibold 2 года назад

I read in a later account of his death that it was not suicide. I believe this was even reported in National Geographic Magazine worldwide, about 10 or 15 years ago. The more recent story reported that Van Gogh was shot by two boys playing Russian Roulette with a pistol. They accidentally shot him, while he was in the South of France out painting near a barn one day. He walked back to the town in South France where he stayed at that time, and to see the doctor who soon reported to his brother Theo, that Van Gogh was in lying in his bed and possibly dying of a gunshot wound. I don't remember now how they found the story of the two boys playing Russian Roulette that accidentally shot Van Gogh.

@robcoghan5204 2 года назад

He didn’t go south in search of brighter colors you are incorrect and factually inaccurate throughout

@CuriousMuse 2 года назад

And where did he go instead?

@robcoghan5204 2 года назад

He did go south to Arles but not for color, he had change occurring with his brother, Paris was too much for his head, interestingly when he arrived in Arles it was to 8 inches of snow a rarity there. He also envisioned the area to be most like Japan. There is more but the point is made, and I get paid to say more.

Van gogh was a preacher before he was an artist. But not alot of people expand on this.

@lukegehring5305 2 года назад

I think one of the most telling details of his character is the way he died. It is no longer believed it was suicide. Earlier in the day he was being teased and tormented by two village juveniles. There is evidence that he later ran into them again, this time they were showing off their father's gun, which went off by accident. The boys ran off, and before he died he asked the policeman attending him if he had interviewed the boys. When the police said no, not yet, he was asked not to, and said the gunshot was self inflicted.

@hansolo2121 3 года назад

You say Van Gogh moved to paris at 27. That's not true. Van Gogh started painting in his native country The Netherlands at 27 but he didn't move to Paris until he was 33. He died only four years later, at 37. Also: the painting of the potato eaters is of Dutch farmers, not coal miners. He painted this painting when living with his parents in Nuenen, Netherlands. His short time living as a preacher with with the coal miners of the Borinage (wich is in Belgium) was 3 years before he painted The Potato eaters.

As an educational project, we take these matters seriously and are very grateful for your feedback!

@ashleynickole889 2 года назад

i feel he was an a man incapable of understanding his own mind. as we look through his artwork we see what he saw but could not seem to escape. to the outside it was a landscape or portrait.. to van gogh it was the beautiful nightmares of his own mental that the average person could not see. i believe he was just a man with a mind simply advanced and not understood in his time. he was also a man who might have been longing for something greater.. something more and went mad. to end this off, he was incredibly talented and unconsciously gave this world a new eye for art.

@CuriousMuse 2 года назад

Agree he was an incredibly talented artist! So sad that the true recognition and fame came after his life...

@marlenevideos8666 Год назад

I believe he was an artist years ahead of his time, which can easily lead to frustration, agitation and depression. Agitation when all dependence is on public acceptance, as anyone in the visual arts. An artist years ahead is usually the next generation or the wrong target group at present, but Vincent did have some good luck with his relative Theo that helped him in supporting him financially. Therefore it was not as bad as it could have been. Sadly he committed suicide, not being able to get away from his own thoughts.

@jeffreywatkins7283 Год назад

There is still some question as to whether or not he committed suicide.... was it an accidental discharge?....was someone else involved?....authorities never found the gun. I don't believe he gave up on a painting and shot himself in the stomach, no matter how distressed he may have been. He was a deliberate man of great emotion and conviction.....if he wanted to kill himself he would have made it quick. just my opinion

Van Gough was crazy. And the fact that he has been celebrated as this poor, misunderstood genius says a lot about this worlds standards. The man hardly sold a painting during his lifetime. It was only after he cut off his ear and blew his brains out that the public started viewing his art as the work of a great talent who wasn’t appreciated when he was alive because he was so ahead of his time. In truth, I believe that the public has been so mesmerized by the mans insane life that they’ve convinced themselves into believing that his art (which again, NOBODY bought when he was alive) is a LOT better than it actually is.
