Vincent van Gogh (1853 - 1890) was a Dutch post-impressionist painter known for his expressive use of color and his emotionally charged landscapes, still lifes, and portraits.Despite struggling with mental illness and financial difficulties throughout his life, van Gogh produced a vast body of work that has had a profound impact on the development of modern art.His use of bright, vibrant colors and thick brushstrokes anticipated the development of expressionism and other modern art movements.

Post-Impressionism, an art movement that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, represents a departure from the naturalism of Impressionism.Artists like Vincent van Gogh and Paul Cézanne, central figures in this movement, focused on expressing emotion and subjective interpretations of reality.Through bold colors, distinctive brushstrokes, and a rejection of strict realism, Post-Impressionist works create a vivid and expressive visual language, contributing to a transformative phase in the evolution of modern art.
