The Curious Death of Vincent Van Gogh

Art is said to be subjective. It is based on the personal feelings and emotions that the artist felt at the time they created a work. It is a way for artists to express themselves through their work.



Not all artists become famous, while others enjoy great success throughout their lifetime. Others on the other hand never get to see their success, and this was the case when it came to Vincent Van Gogh. After his death, he became one of the most famous and influential artists in art history. But Vincent’s life was not a happy one. During his lifetime he was not commercially successful, and he struggled in poverty. This lead to depression, and mental health issues. Due to his struggles, Vincent died from suicide at the age of 37…or did he?



Now my dear listeners…I want to give you a heads up here. We will be talking about mental health, self injury, and suicide in this episode. Listener discretion is advised.
