Vincent Van Gogh led a very troubled life with many challenges......
After schooling, he was interested in being a preacher. When he went to study, he found the material of Latin, Greek, and mathematics to be too challenging for his liking. He then moved on to working as a lay preacher in a coal mining town. There he was denied of any income due to the fact that he was very concerned for the conditions of the workers. Also due to his caring social commitments he continued to live in poverty, but did everything in his power to help the needy.
He also fell in love with Clasina Maria Hoornik, or Sien. Sien was a pregnant, alcoholic, prostitute Vincent fell in love with, and wanted very much to marry after she was periodically the subject of his paintings.
After they broke up due to his brother Theodore advising him against the relationship, he spent the most difficult time of his life at his parents house falling into a deep depression that was very relevant in his artwork which became extremely dark and dreary.
Van Gogh spent time in the Yellow House with Gaugin. Here they found they hated one another and Vincent ended up attacking him one night with a razor. Gaugin ran off and Vincent cut off a chunk of his ear, wrapped it in newspaper and offered it as a gift to a local prostitute. Then, along with a bad reputation, Vincent was diagnosed with epilepsy, Alcoholism and schizophrenia, and thrown in and out of a mental hospital for the rest of his life.
