Vincent Van Gogh’s Wheat Fields with Reaper at sunrise

Vincent Van Gogh, a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter, lived from 1853 to 1890. Despite struggling with mental health issues, he created around 2,100 artworks, including iconic pieces like “Starry Night” and “Sunflowers.” Van Gogh’s bold use of color, expressive brushstrokes, and emotional intensity distinguish his style. His contributions to art include influencing Expressionism and laying the groundwork for modern art movements. Tragically, Van Gogh’s brilliance gained recognition posthumously, highlighting the complex relationship between artistic genius and mental health.
