VINCENT VAN GOGH
Vincent Van Gogh was born on the
30th March 1853 at a time when
painters were experimenting
with new modern methods of painting.

VINCENT VAN GOGH
He began to learn drawing skills at
the age of 13, which soon grew
into a great interest in
painting and art and a desire to paint the things
around him.

VINCENT VAN GOGH
When he was a young man, his brother,
Theo, suggested that he should become a professional artist, though he found it very difficult to sell
his brightly coloured paintings.

VINCENT VAN GOGH
This type of painting was called ‘Expressionism’ and it has now
made him one of the most popular artists of all time. The next picture is one of his most famous paintings called ‘Starry
night’.
