Best Answer

Van means "from" in Dutch, and as a particle, should notbe capitalized with Vincent (or any other name) in front of it, and should be capitalized without.

Thus: Vincent Van Gogh painted wonderful art.

Later, Van Gogh cut off his ear.

As an added note: his birth name is Vincent Willem van Gogh- Gogh is technically where he is from.
