Van Gogh is a mythical figure in his own right. Who hasn't heard of the artist that cut off his ear? It's quite possible that people do not actually KNOW whom, but damn, they know SOMEONE like that exists. Here is the protype for the psychotic artist. Van Gogh is one of the premier if not the best post-impressionist. With his unforgettable and immediately recognizable painterly style, with long and thick strokes and his utter basic knowledge of what painting is, here is Van Gogh. May he please your eye and stir your heart.
