Vincent van Gogh Biography
(b zundert, 30 march 1853; d auvers-sur-oise, 29 july 1890). Dutch painter. His life and work are legendary in the history of 19th- and 20th-century art. In the popular view, van Gogh has become the prototype of the misunderstood, tormented artist, who sold only one work in his lifetime—but whose Irises (sold new york, sotheby’s, 11 nov 1987) achieved a record auction sale price of £49 million. Romantic clichés suggest that van Gogh paid for his genius with insanity, which was understood only by his supportive brother Theo (1857–91). Van Gogh was active as an artist for only ten years, during which time he produced some 1,000 watercolours, drawings and sketches and about 1250 paintings ranging from a dark, realist style to an intense, expressionistic one. Almost more than on his oeuvre, his fame has been based on the extensive, diary-like correspondence he maintained, in particular, with his brother.
