Question

Vincent van Gogh is a very famous painter. Everyone in the world knows

his work, and his paintings sell for millions of dollars. But he wasn´t famous
when he was alive, and he only sold one painting before he died.
Van Gogh was born in the Netherlands in 1853. He had a difficult life
because he suffered from mental illness. He never got married. He didn´t

begin to draw and paint seriously until he was 27, and he died just ten
years later. But in that time, he produced more than 2,000 paintings and
drawings. At first, Van Gogh painted poor people and used only dark
colours. Later he moved to the south of France. He loved the sunlight
there, and his style of paintings became colourful and exciting. But Van
Gogh was often depressed and his mental illness became worse.
First, he cut off part of his own ear, and then in 1890, he shot himself.
