VanGogh's Madness

Vincent had never been particularly stable, and Gaugin was no day at the beach himself. After the two had a violent argument just before Christmas of 1888, Gaugin left town and van Gogh broke down. His established mental eccentricities aggravated by a combination of alcohol, absinthe, and epilepsy, van Gogh began hearing things. With the cold, unrelenting logic of the insane, he deduced that the solution to the problem was to cut off his left ear.

  • What a great video!

    The song lets you understand what Vincent was going through at that time.

    simply brilliant.

  • thank you.

    the real credit goes to johnny cash, a master of moving people with his words, and of course van gogh, a master of moving people with his images

  • Johnny Cash rocks.

  • Yes he does. Thank you for resubscribing.

  • I don't understand why it is only one painting that is shown... it would be much more interesting if the picture would change... great song, great painting... poor execution (perhaps i missed some artistic vantage)

  • what about triple h?
