Vincent was a man who was ahead of his time. After reading his letters to his brother Theo I realized what a brilliant, well read, spiritual and deeply thoughtful man he was. How sad that he had to struggle with serious physical and mental illness! The world is a better place because he lived for a brief 37 years and chose to sketch, paint and write about what he saw and felt.
South of France was seemingly a beautiful place. I remember watching a film entitled Two For The Road of which starring Audrey Hepburn and Albert Finney long ago in 1996. They filmed a lot within this area back in the '60s. So, I could only imagine how beautiful the unadultered views it held during Van Gogh's era! It was one of those French-themed films I saw in AV classes. All of my classmates in Malaysia were required to have basic La Francais for school exam by the end of year. I enjoyed it!
Profound artist. A visionary, indeed. Feelingly soul and a deeply thinking man. Thought provoking paintings. Colourful palate, beautiful nature, and his insightful nature provoked him. And he painted. Brilliant.
Was not sure I was going to watch this. Than hearing Edward Herrmann' s voice whom I've always thought had the perfect voice for narration. I'd give it a go. Before long I had it playing on a high-def large screen. Just sat back and let it flow. Of course, I had to play Don McClean's "Vinvent". Seems fitting somehow. Many thanks. :)
Really enjoyed. Closeups of brushstrokes explanation of the pictures from descriptions of his letters. Wonderful old documentary such a pleasure to watch!
It's symbolic of Van Gogh's struggles and ultimate triumphs during his short story in Arles, pretty heady stuff but these old documentaries are chock full 'em.
The sunflowers painting shown is thought to be a fake, there are mistakes, one is a leaf has a stem going through it rather than attached normally, it’s the painting currently in Japan.

Mystical poet in colour.

The filmmaker was an artist too !
A superior art documentary which concentrates acutely on the artists style as he travels from Brabant in the North to Arles in the South. Bravo!

Around the world
Who is ‘Van Go’ ?
In 1967 from the vaults of the met you will see dinosaur paintings and drawings 🦖🦕
Wow really
A proof of how bad parenting can ruin a child's life
How old was he this picture
VvG was not a creature. He was the Creative.
he painted many more paintings after the crows, he moved from Arles up near Paris for a while, there he shot himself.
10:02 why would you zoom on on the poor woman sneezing?!?!? And leave it in through editing process! 🤪

11:17 lol
I noticed this too. Love how the camera was casually zoomed in and then slowly zoomed out. 😂🤣
so.

It doesn't really matter. It emerges from his vision, and is loved for that anyway.
A letter to my brother theo poem
Why no starry night ?
He painted that in Saint Remy not Arles
The way the English pronounce.. Van Go! Yeah, going somewhere? 😅 its Van Gogh for Vincents sake!
Martin Christopher Lopez Mary Miller Ruth
How can you say he died of epilepsy, insanity and whatever else.. you don’t really know?? He died of a gunshot to the gut. Probably self inflicted.
Not sayin' but sayin' maybe things got rough between Goghan and Vincent had something to do with how long a pregnancy takes since Gaughan was a playa.
Art collecting isn't based on anything real or scientific.
Just a bunch of wealthy people who lack the talent create anything of their own.
The art is GREAT. GREAT LIKE A TIGER 🐅
TERRIBLE reproduction...does disservice to the art and the artist by giving a false impression of the works...
