I Love Vincent Van Gogh🧑‍🎨

Van Gogh is considered one of the greatest artists in history. His work is known for its bold use of color, expressive line, and thick application of paint. His paintings influenced the Expressionist movement in modern art and inspired avant-garde groups like the Fauves.

Van Gogh’s art became astoundingly popular after his death, especially in the late 20th century, when his work sold for record-breaking sums at auctions around the world and was featured in blockbuster touring exhibitions. In part because of his extensive published letters, van Gogh has also been mythologized in the popular imagination as the quintessential tortured artist.

Wide and diverse audiences have come to appreciate his art, and the record-breaking attendance at exhibitions of his works—as well as the popularity of commercial items featuring imagery from his oeuvre—reveal that, within the span of a century, van Gogh has become perhaps the most recognized painter of all time.
