【题目】 Many people see Vincent Van Gogh (文森特·梵高) as a great artist. But the Dutch painter’s life was filled with failures.

Van Gogh didn’t start painting until he was 27 or 28. But he had finished nearly 900 oil paintings by the time he died at 37. Born to a rich family in the Netherlands, Van Gogh once worked as an art dealer (艺术品商人), a teacher and a minister (牧师), but failed in all. He started to paint in 1880. In 1886, Van Gogh moved to Paris. Influenced by a number of impressionist artists (印象派画家), Van Gogh began to use bright colors. He used them to express his feelings, which changed the direction of art forever.

However, people were not ready to accept his way of painting. Tired of his hard life in Paris, Van Gogh moved to Arles in southern France two years later. Although he made a number of works there, his serious depression (抑郁) led him to cut off the lower part of his left ear. American authors Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith said in 2011 that he was shot (枪击) by two boys accidentally, according to the BBC.

Today, Van Gogh’s paintings sell for record-breaking prices. However, during his lifetime, he sold only one picture called the Red Vineyard.
