 Vincent Van Gogh died 122 years ago today at the age of 37. A tortured life.

 So tragic. I think of what he might have accomplished with the help that is available today. Very well drawn.

 Great memorial! 60 Minutes had a most interesting discussion of his illness and death, liberally illustrated by his work.

 I saw that Normal and thought it very interesting. Would like to read the biography. Thanks for compliments.

 I knew it was a Van Gogh the minute I saw it.

 Great pic...saw the show about him tonight. So sad he never knew happiness or how famous he became. Such a tragic life for him but at least he lost himself in his love of art.

 To think this talented man found it so difficult to sell his paintings. Perhaps the frustration and poverty drove him to his own demise.

 yes, but would he have painted all his wonderful pictures if he didn't have a tragic life? Would we even know any of his pics if he didn't die young?

 I visited Chicago's Art Institute on vacation and admired some of his art firsthand along with the other impressionists. No photo can do justice to his brush and knife work. This is a terrific homage.
