Perhaps
the greatest artist of all time, Vincent van Gogh actually
lived a very short life. He was born in 1853 and died
in 1890 at the young age of 37. Unfortunately, van
Gogh took his own life with a gun, after serious bouts with
depression. If only he had known how great he would
become. The 2013 Vincent van Gogh calendars feature
some of his best work, including Starry Night on the
calendar cover. Vincent van Gogh was not a raving
success during his lifetime. He sold but one painting
while he was alive. Before he committed suicide, van
Gogh chopped off his own ear and then went into an insane
asylum. |
