In just over a decade he created approximately 2100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings, most of them in the last two years of his life. On 27 July 1890, in a field near Auvers, Vincent shot himself. He died two days later, with his brother Theo at his bedside. Why did he choose to end his life? Some say he was exhausted from working too hard and that he set impossibly high standards for himself.Born: March 30, 1853, in the Netherlands and Died: July 29, 1890 in France. A wonderful book!
