Masters of Art - Vincent Van Gogh - 10 dollar - Silver Be 2022
The idea of this new series is to combine a famous painting with a portrait of its artist. This edition is dedicated to Vincent Van Gogh (1853-1890), considered one of the greatest painters of all time, a true master of art. His most creative and productive period began in February 1888, when the Dutch painter moved to Arles, in the south of France, where he formed a work and life partnership with Paul Gauguin. It was at this time that he created many of his most famous works, including landscapes, interiors and self -portraits. Among these, "wheat field with cypress" was selected for this room. Van Gogh finished this painting, in bright colors and striking brush strokes in 1889. Which was only about year before his tragic death, which he himself inflicted.
"I put my heart and my soul in my work, and I lost my head in the process." (Vincent Van Gogh)
