Do you know Vincent van Gogh? He was a post Impressionist painter. He suffered from anxiety and increasingly frequent bouts of mental illness throughout his life, and died unknown, at the age of 37, from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Today, he is widely regarded as one of history's greatest painters and an important contributor to the foundations of modern art. He is one of my favorite artists that sometimes I think about his life; specifically, while he cut off the part of his left ear. He wrapped and handed it to Rachel, and asking her to “keep this object carefully”.

Vang Gogh is not the only artist who had a psychological problems. I don’t know why many famous artists had personality problems.
