Collection: Vincent van Gogh

Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch post-impressionist painter who is considered one of the most influential figures in the history of Western art. He struggled with mental illness throughout his life and was known for his vivid and emotional paintings, characterized by bold colors, thick brushstrokes, and a strong sense of movement.Van Gogh initially worked as an art dealer and missionary before turning to painting in his late twenties. He was largely self-taught and experimented with various styles, including realism, impressionism, and symbolism. Despite his initial struggles to gain recognition, Van Gogh produced some of the most famous and beloved works in art history, including "The Starry Night," "Sunflowers," and "Irises."Tragically, Van Gogh's life was marked by poverty, illness, and mental instability, and he died at the age of 37 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Today, he is remembered as a master of color and emotion, whose influence can be seen in countless art movements and styles.
