"Vincent van Gogh was born in the Netherlands in 1853. He began painting in his late twenties and became one of the most famous artists in the world. He struggled with mental illness and poverty throughout his life, which influenced many of his works. Despite creating over 2,100 artworks, including 860 oil paintings, van Gogh was virtually unknown during his lifetime. His most famous works include Starry Night, Sunflowers, and The Bedroom. He died in 1890 at the age of 37, having sold only one painting during his lifetime."
