On July 27, 1890, Vincent Van Gogh shot himself in the chest. The bullet was deflected off of his rib bones and passed through his chest without doing any damage to his internal organs. Van Gogh was able to walk back to the Auberge Ravoux where two physicians attended him. However, neither physician was able to remove the bullet, so the wound was left untreated. Van Gogh died in the evening, 29 hours after shooting himself.

He was 37 years old when he died.

whilst painting in a field he shot himself in the stomach with a revolver. Without realizing that he was fatally wounded, he returned to the Ravoux Inn, where he died in his bed two days later. He suffered from depression, and it is suspected that it was a cry for help/attention rather than a genuine suicide attempt

That is how Vincent gogh died. Many people will miss him for his fascinating paintings. ;)

he died after he shot himself in the chest. Historians disagree on were he was when he shot himself but they do know that he did not die until 29 hours after he shot himself. This was because the bullet missed all of his organs. He was treated by to physicians who were unqualified for this kind of work.
