Vincent van Gogh
Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890), Dutch, Dutch post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh, born in Zundert, Netherlands, revolutionized modern art with his emotive brushwork and vivid color palettes. Despite a turbulent life marked by mental illness and poverty, he produced over 2,000 artworks, including masterpieces like The Starry Night and Sunflowers. His career began in earnest at age 27 after abandoning earlier pursuits in art dealing and religious ministry. Van Gogh’s work, initially dismissed as chaotic, later became foundational to Expressionism and Fauvism. He died by suicide at 37, leaving a legacy that reshaped 20th-century art.
