Vincent van Gogh

Pablo Picasso died on April 8, 1973 at the age of 91.

Vincent Van Gogh painted his iconic 'Starry Night' while he was a patient in a mental health facility. It is believed that it is not just a depiction of a town and night sky, but is also symbolic of the internal turmoil that Van Gogh was feeling.

I am not sure it was. Judging from the questions sent to WikiAnswers "Starry Night" is the most famous one.

Also 'The Sunflowers' is a series of paintings with similar subjects, at least 7 of them.

yeh no one knows!

he was Dutch, but he lived most of his life in France, where he made most of his masterworks

1 brother Answer 2: He had three sisters: Elisabeth, Willemina (Wil), Anna and two brothers: Theo and Cor.

Van Gogh shot himself because he thought "there is no point in me living anymore." Then he took a revolver, went to a field, and shot himself. Then he walked back to the asylum, stayed untreated for 3 days, then died.

This shows you how tastes change over time.
And you are completely wrong in saying he WAS famous. He was not, but he is now.

he changed the perspective of many artists with his unorthodox paintings

Through his use of vivid colours when painting and the curves and lines that he used in his paintings. He was an artist that was mentally unsound but when he was in an asylum he painted a picture called the Starry Night" This shows his use of lines and colours when painting. Another picture that can be used is t" The Prisoner" . The most unique thing about him was his attention to colour and that he didn't use a brush to paint all the time just used a pallet and applied the pain to the canvas and sing the pallet created the eccentric lines in his painting this technique was very quick to do and allowed him to paint over 900 paintings before he ended his life.

While in Paris, van Gogh met Paul Signac. Signac learned of a new method known as pointillism. In pointillism, small dots or points of unmixed color were dabbed onto the canvas beside each other so they would appear to blend when a viewer stepped back from the painting. Van Gogh adopted what Signac had taught him. He tried to do pointillism but his dots would come out as dashes.

There are seven genuine Sunflower painings by van Gogh. Any other is a fake.

Roger Van Haverbeke died on March 5, 2011, in Brussels, Belgium.

He liked to paint: portraits, scenery and the most famous one, flowers

A sky full of stars and a moon, a village, a couple of cypresses.

He wanted to get the colours of his landscape in reach.

Definitely not rich, but not extremely poor.

On March 31, 1987 Japanese insurance magnate Yasuo Goto paid the equivalent of US $39,921,750 for Van Gogh's Still Life: Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers at auction at Christie's London.

It is not possible to assess the value of a work of art until it is up for sale. Yet you might be interested to know that the most expensive van Gogh painting sold at auction cost over $71 million.

the value is so much that you can't determine it

That would be Vincent Van Gogh, according to legend.

However, there is no evidence that he actually cut his own ear off.

In fact, in recent times there is new historic evidence that suggests that it was cut off in an argument by a French artist called Paul Gauguin.

See related link for the historian's new account.

It was certainly important, you can sense it in his unbridled way of expressing his feelings.

In 1990 his painting Portrait of Dr Gachet was sold for 82.5 million dollars.
