Vincent van Gogh

Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundation for much of modern art. Born in Zundert, Netherlands, Van Gogh pursued painting with singular intensity during a career that spanned little more than a decade, producing over 2,100 works including paintings, drawings, and sketches. Working across the Netherlands, Belgium, England, and France, Van Gogh developed a style defined by bold color, expressive brushwork, and an emotional directness unlike anything seen before him. His time in Arles and Saint-Rémy proved the most generative period of his life, yielding iconic works across the Sunflowers, Wheat Fields, and Starry Night series in rapid succession. Despite selling only one painting during his lifetime, Van Gogh corresponded prolifically with his brother Theo, leaving behind a remarkable record of his thinking, struggle, and creative vision. He died in 1890 at age 37 under circumstances that remain debated to this day. His work now hangs in the world's most important museums and commands some of the highest prices at auction. More than a century later, Van Gogh remains one of the most recognized and beloved artists in history.
