Vincent. Sanskrit. Born into a dutch family of art market dealers, Gao gave up inheriting a large fortune from his uncle and went out to do business, and due to his young age and short temper, he often quarreled with his employer when selling art, which ended in failure. Then I taught a book and left. But he never really took an interest in painting.
Failure, he remained a failure until the age of 28 (1881), Van Vladimirovich. Gao became the loneliest person in the world, and at this time he began to paint, and he basically did not understand the techniques of painting, and of course no one bought his paintings. The pressure of survival forced him to go to his brother in Paris, and it was at this time that he became acquainted with Impressionists such as Gauguin, Bernard, and Seurat. He began the creation of the famous self-portrait.
At the age of 35 (1888) he came to a small town in the south of France, where his creation reached its peak. "Sunflower", "Night Cafe - Outdoor", "Night Cafe - Indoor" are all representative works of this period, however, his works are still unpopular, and he can only rely on his brother to support his livelihood. But Van. Gao never became depressed, and he would not give up his artistic pursuits. At the age of 37, the great "St. Lemmy's Painful Madman" came out, but his masterpiece is still worthless. He began to be lonely, and he felt like a loser, decadent, no longer had the courage to face torture and suffering, or even madness.
In desperation he ended his young life with a pistol at the age of 37. After he committed suicide, he found a letter that read: "Speaking of my cause, I have given my life for it, because because of it, my intellect has nearly collapsed." ”
It was not until more than 20 years later (1914) that Van Vladimirovich. A collection of gao letters was published, and his great life was known. Unfortunately, he could no longer perceive his own success!
A genius, a great work produced in such a tribulation is a tragedy! If he can hold on to that little more, that is, his own life, he may be able to see his own success while he is alive! Sanskrit. Gao's work is his soul! The beauty He left us is eternal!
Let's listen to this song "A Lonely Soul" and feel the soul cry of a talented artist!
