Vincent van Gogh
1853 - 1890
The work of Dutch post-impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh is among the most recognisable and celebrated today, with his twisted wavy brushstrokes and richly textured canvases. The story of his life, mental illness and devotion to his craft are legend, and his iconic paintings, including his series of Sunflowers (1888-1889) and The Starry Night (1889), continue to captivate audiences.
