Vincent Willem van Gogh was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter who posthumously became one of the most famous and influential figures in Western art history. In a decade, he created about 2,100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings, most of which date from the last two years of his life. He was not commercially successful and, struggling with severe depression and poverty, committed suicide at the age of 37. Check out our entire Famous Art Series.
