Vincent VanGhon, a painter of Post Impressionism in Holland. The masterpiece includes star moon night, self portrait series, sunflower series and so on.

Born in a Protestant clergyman's family in Zindelt, a Dutch village on March 30, 1853, Van Gogh worked as a clerk and business agent in his early years, as a missionary in a mining area, and eventually devoted himself to painting. His early style of painting was influenced by Holland traditional painting and French realism. In 1886, he came to Paris to meet Impressionist and New Impressionist painters, and to contact with Japanese Ukiyo paintings, the expansion of the field of vision to make his style dramatic changes, his paintings, from the early dull, dark, and become concise, bright and strong color. In 1888, when he came to the town of Al in the south of France, he got rid of the influence of the Impressionism and the New Impressionism and went against it. In the same year, they exchanged with Gauguin, but because of their personality conflicts and differences of ideas, their cooperation soon failed. Since then, Van Gogh's madness (known as "epilepsy") has been frequent, but he still insists on painting when he is conscious. In July 1890, he shot himself in a mental disorder at the age of 37.
