Theodorus van Gogh, known as 'Theo' was the brother of world famous artist Vincent Van Gogh, but he was not only his brother, he was a very important figure in the tortured artist's life, because he was a great support for him, both, financially and morally. He was dedicated to the art trade, and that profession is the one that allowed him to support his brother economically, so he could dedicate his life to his art.

When he was 37 he shot himself
