For most people, Vincent Van Gogh embodies the idea of an artist as a crazy genius. They write about him, they say, still carefully examine his work, find more and more details of his life, sometimes creating crazy legends. The tense state of his soul and the mind of the last few years of his life, which was sublimated into the famous masterpieces, became the result of the internal and external painful contradictions that he survived. And contempt for conventions and complete freedom of creativity helped him in creating his own, inimitable language in art, which his friends and contemporaries did not understand, and which was appreciated only after his death.
He was unhappy in love and had extremely naive The ideas about life before he chose the field of the preacher. At the age of 37, when he finally approached the recognition and success, which he longed throughout his life, in a fit of madness, he committed suicide, mortally injuring himself in his chest.
Van Gogh possessed wide knowledge in the field of literature And art, was a thinking, educated man who could masterfully and eloquently speak in three languages. We learn about this from his many letters, preserved thanks to his younger brother, Theo and wife, Theo, Iohanna. His letters indicate that in addition to picturesque talent, he also possessed an undoubted writing gift. The epistolary heritage of Vincent Van Gogh includes more than seven hundred letters, which reflect the evolution of his theoretical principles and reveals the truth about the life of the artist, whose art remained unknown during his lifetime and recognized as invaluable today. Van Gogh’s letters refute the prevailing common opinion of him as a madman and reveals the true scale of this bright, expressive and gifted master
