    When I was in 4th grade in the late 1960's we had "picture study" in art class, which consisted of a pack of 100 small cards of images of famous paintings. We had to learn the name of each painting, the artist and their nationality. I still remember most of them and can usually identify one of those artists based on the picture I learned many years ago because of their style. It even compelled me to get a Minor in art history. Why isn't this taught in school anymore?

    Vincent Van Gogh is one of the most famous painters that ever lived . He is as famous as Leonard da Vinci who painted 'The Mona Lisa'. (I hope you have heard of that even ??)
    It's actually pretty tragic that somebody of your age has never even heard of one of the most loved artists who ever lived.

      He was a Dutch painter and he suffered from severe mental illness, he had actually cut off one of ears when he was delirious and in the end he committed suicide. It’s such a shame that you don’t know much about what you react to. Google Vincent Van Gough and maybe then you’ll understand what he went through

      Your nasty and pretentious. How did you feel when other people spoke about Vincent Van Gogh or any other artist for that matter, and you didn't know who he/they were? or were you blessed and knew about him and every other famous artist the day you were born? Your comment shows your ignorance in more ways than one. And guess what? through this youtube music channel of discovery, at some ones request, he knows now. At what age should we know art history?

      Now, the English I believe pronounce it "Van Goff" but I'm not entirely sure. I just know this clip from Vincent and the Doctor has it as Van "Goff" This guy has no excuse...he's not British lol.

    The line between genius and insanity is paper-thin. Yes, he did shoot himself in the stomach and it took him four days to die. His brother set with him until he passed. Vincent Van Gogh's last painting was recently sold for 120 million dollars. He could not give them away when he was alive.
