Yesterday, we went to an exposition in Thyssen Museum (Madrid) in which is exposed the pictures of Van Gogh done in his last years.Vincent van Gogh was born near Brabant, the son of a minister. In 1869, he got a position at the art dealers, Goupil and Co. in The Hague, through his uncle, and worked with them until he was dismissed from the London office in 1873. He worked as a schoolmaster in England (1876), before training for the ministry at Amsterdam University (1877). After he failed to get a post in the Church, he went to live as an independent missionary among the Borinage miners.
I like pictures of Van Gogh, but I consider his pictures aren't very difficult (other persons think of this form...), but well, they are very decorative.
