【Art】journal- Vincent van Gogh


It’s no doubt that Vincent van Gogh is an outstanding artist in nineteenth century, though he fascinated people for recent years. I have already bought a ticket of Vincent van Gogh exhibition in Taipei historic museum with my high school friend about December; I can’t wait for that day.

Vincent van Gogh moved me when I was in senior high school, an article described him as a life fighter for he keeping his goal no matter how tough the process was. As everybody knows, he relied on the livelihood sended by Theo van Gogh, his younger brother and a successful art dealer. In spite of living in straitened circumstances, Vincent van Gogh still never gived up painting until ended his tragic life, even though there were no painting sold out during his life; this spirit truly urged me for sparing no effort on everything.About his death, I regard Vincent van Gogh’s suicide out of the relief to both he and his brother not the exhaustion of originality; his creativity is never drained.

Besides, he didn’t receive the professional training in his early life. Originally Vincent van Gogh planed to be a priest, an art dealer, and finally he determined to paint at late twenties. This long way stimulates me that impossibility is nothing; any opportunity may develop into turning point in life, and if there is a hope, there is a way. That is, It will never too late to achieve the dream.


Behind a great man exist a story; Vincent van Gogh is an suitable example.
