[@TheresaGreen-oq4xe]

I love this documentary, I've seen different ones but, for some reason this one touches me. I love Vincent not just because of his paintings but his journey to paint. He should have had more support but because of his energy and sickness it was impossible but we can all thank his brother and sister in-law for their support without these two we would have never known him. I'm an artist he has taught me a lot and so have Japanese artist.

When I visited the museum of modern art in New York I had an extraordinary experience.On the top floor there was Picasso,Dali,and Van Gogh. There were a handful of people looking at Guernica.In the next room was Starry Night. But the room was so packed that it was impossible to get in. The guards were having to push people out! I did not understand until I stood in front of Starry Night myself.I have never had a painting affect me like this. No, not the Mona Lisa. It was an ecstatic experience that I will never forget. Anyone who has seen will understand something that cannot be expressed in words and that something is what Art is all about.The guards had to push me out too.I just could not break away from it.When I left I did not even bother to take a look at the Soft Watches. Go and figure what happened to me!

OMG. I'm 72yrs. Back in NYNY I went on a school trip to the Met in the City. I couldn't take my eyes off Picasso, Guernica. When my art teacher came back to find me I was crying. I was about 14yrs. Your story made me cry all over again. Thank you.

[@DATo_DATonian]

There is a little known story about Vincent that I would like to share. It is both tragic and beautiful. Decades ago I picked up a very large book about Van Gogh's life from the library. It had beautiful, full page, color images of his work. It also contained the story of his life in great detail. One story involved a meeting of many of the "Impressionist" painters at a sea-side cottage. It was sort of an informal convention one might say. They brought samples of their work's in progress and I would assume the idea was to catch up on what each of them had been doing while they had been apart. Now, Vincent was not part of their group per se. He had never entered his work in any of their exhibitions; however, being in the vicinity and having heard of the gathering he decided to attend. This was during the period that he had discovered the Japanese prints as I recall. He arrived with several of his canvases rolled up under his arm and at one point unrolled them on the floor to display them. You can only imagine his enthusiasm. He was finally in a congregation of people who could understand and relate to his work. He was prancing about with great energy and describing the paintings and the inspiration behind them ... you know, shop talk ... and when he finished there was absolute silence. No one moved or said a word. It was a dismissal. Vincent quietly rolled up his paintings and departed. It was then that the only female present, Berthe Morisot, took the others to task for their treatment of Vincent, reminding them that they too had been rejected by critics, and who were they to pass such harsh judgement upon one of their own. Her own paintings have insured her immortality, but it is rather for this act of support, the only time in the record that anyone ever stood up forcefully to defend Vincent, that she is enshrined in my heart. [EDIT] I wish I had recorded this event more faithfully at the time. I do not remember the name of the book or who created it, but it is the only documented instance of this meeting that I have ever encountered. Judging from the high quality of the book itself I truly believe that author / publisher was someone of consequence and that the story is authentic.

Vincent Van Gogh life is a mystery. I took an interest and as time went by, I became more interested reading any info. I could come across. Truly a remarkable painter. Even Don McLean song Starry Starry Night I find listening to the poetry never stops to amaze me. Hopefully one day I will visit Amsterdam to see his great masterpiece.

[@granthurlburt4062]

I hghly recommend "Van Gogh: The life" by by Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith. It is over 600 pp long and I was not bored for a second. One of the two authors is himself a painter. The book gives great accounts of his techniques and his brushstrokes. it made me buy some paints and start painting (a little again). It also made the recent Immersive Experience far more alive. It gives a great depiction of his really troubled mind while being utterly on his side. His family might have been more supportve but Theo himself could not have been supportive. Vincent often wasted or overspent the little money Theo was able to spare.

A liquidated qwurts always bring them together with syntralized timing

[@michaelvires8871]

I can't keep quiet about this any longer. When I think of the lives of these great artists and their dedication and sacrifices it took to create their masterpieces...then today's museums uses frames and lighting that create shadows on the master's works either at the top or sometimes at the side edge of paintings, as a viewer we lose an inch and sometimes two inches of the painting in shadow. Were those parts of the paintings intended to not be viewed or integral parts of the paintings? When Vincent was in the field, on the beach or in his room painting, did he create these masterpieces with a frame on the canvas? Isn't part of the painting at the edges covered by frame? Personally I believe every square inch of a painting should be visible for maximum effect the artist intended and not be covered up or shadowed. Frames can play and should play the part of accenting and complimenting a painting. There's a saying 'a painting is not finished until it is framed' but if not thought out carefully a frame can sometimes cancel out the painting by taking 'center stage' and making the painting a supportive role to the frame. If shadows is the best museums can do I would rather see these great works unframed.

[@jordangroff8978]

I agree completely! The one painting that doesn't have that problem just happens to be the still life @28:12 that Van Gogh framed himself, and the effect is so much better!

[@expromanticart6491]

Actually some art works do not need frames. A frame separates the work from the wall it is displayed on. The worst things about the frames in art are the old design and golden color of them. These carved or molded old frames distract the viewers from the actual work. The gold color serves no purpose. It is just a silly tradition. The suitable color could be the same as the dominant color of the work. This way it will be in harmony with the painting.

[@Khamomil]

There's an aspect I haven't seen mentioned about the swirls that often appear in Vincent's Arles paintings. I believe they represent the effect of the Mistral wind on clouds, trees and fields of wheat. Mistral is a very strong wind that blows in Provence and which is inseparable from life in this region.

The first photo shown is not Vincent, it's Theo. So many websites get this mixed up and it irritates me. The second photo IS Vincent when he was 19 years old. After that there are no photos of him showing his face. The first portrait shown is of Theo. Vincent and Theo had put on each other's hats and Vincent painted their portraits. I think it's the only portrait of Theo that exists.

I wonder if he was bipolar and if high expressed emotion such as kids bullying him or loud arguments set off a psychotic episode. He may have drank to ease hunger and nerves making his depression worse. He was sympathetic to the working poor which probably made his work uncomfortable, not pretty enough for a patron's home. If people had contempt for the minor and farmer, they would not value the paintings.

[@expromanticart6491]

Not sure if they mentioned it, but Vincent admired the paintings of Adolphe Monticelli. He mentioned him a lot. He learned or was influenced by his thick application of colors. However, the technique has ruined some of Monticelli's work. Piling colors on previous colors is counter productive for some reasons. They can react with one another chemically and change the final color over time. Another reason is that by doing so, you only get a relief effect, and the colors below do not serve any purpose. The effect can be simulated by other methods. I examined some of the discolored works of Monticelli in the basement of the main art museum in Amsterdam, and sure enough all those colors having been piled up on each other had eventually ruined the final color. Now, how many layers Vincent used, that I do not know. The narrator should at least give Monticelli some credit in influencing Vincent. Vincent was a self taught colorist. He was genius in juxtapositioning of colors. His sunflowers are overrated. His colorful compositions show his dexterity in the use of many colors without making the works gory. In that aspect, he also loved Delacroix, a master colorist. Delacroix himself admired Rubens, so we can trace the influence all the way back to Rubens. Rubens was a colorist himself. Analyzing and appreciating his work is one thing, but the true understanding comes from knowing the major artists who had influenced him or inspired him. His paintings of peasants were inspired by Millet. All these artists are mentioned in his letters if the curators bother to read all the three volumes.
