Vincent van Gogh is now a widely recognized post-impressionist artist that sadly did not receive much renown during his lifetime. He lived a troubled life and died tragically at the young age of 37.


Van Gogh is often associated with his iconic self portrait so few realize that photos of the painter do exist.
