A Famous Painter
Today the artist Vincent van Gogh is very famous, but he was never famous during his life.
Vincent was Dutch. His family was from a small village in the Netherlands. His brother: Theo, was a very
important person in his life. Vincent was usually poor, but his brother always helped him with money
Vincent was always good at painting, but he had many different jobs. He worked for an art company,
and in a bookshop, and ne was a teacher: He was interested in religion, and he wanted to study
theology, but he wasn't a very good student .When he was 27 he started to work as a painter: He lived
in Belgium, the Netherlands, and France, where he was with his friend, the painter Paul Gaugin.
But Vincent was never really happy, and he was often not well. When he was only 37, he ended his life.
When Vincent was alive, he wasn't famous and his paintings weren't popular. Today his pictures are very
expensive, and you can see them in art galleries all over the world.
