Best Answer

Vincent Van Gogh will become the "hinge" on which 19th century Romanticism will turn into 20th century Expressionism. His paintings become his way of sharing his inner most feelings, his fears and doubts and, above all, his love of all nature. His greatness lies in the success of that sharing, his ability to transmit his feeling to others, regardless of time or place.

Although almost wholly unknown during his brief lifetime, the painter Vincent Willem van Gogh, b. Mar. 30, 1853, is today probably the most widely known and appreciated representative of Post Impressionism. His work became an important bridge between the 19th and 20th centuries; it was particularly influential in the evolution of both Fauvism and German Expressionism.
