The paintings are placed in chronological order, which helps you feel the artist’s personal development.Van Gogh’s contemporaries’ works are creating kind of a context, which helps to apprehend the atmosphere of the time.
Even though Van Gogh only started painting roughly in his only thirties, he managed to leave us 800 canvases and 1200 sketches.
The artist’s tragic suicide was most likely connected to his mental disease caused by the immoderate lifestyle he led. He committed suicide in 1890 when he was 37, but the short time he had was enough for him to create a multitude of brilliant paintings, quite many of which rightfully deserve being called masterpieces.
During the excursion to Van Gogh museum, you’ll be able to get closer acquainted with the artist’s work, as well as his uneasy life.
