Now there's a question! As a young man Vincent trained as a Protestant evangelist in the poorest areas of London and Belgium. He is supposd to have lost his religion in the Borinage coalmining district. However, we don't really know what his spiritual path was; in the last months he painted relgious themes. At one time he carried around Bunyan's Pilgrims Progress (Puritan) and Thomas a Kempis' Imitation of Christ (Catholic). He is generally thought of as a theosophist and a humanist, but it seems really that Vincent followed no path but his own. His brother Theo refused to marry in church.
