Vincent van Gogh: A Gallery of 30 Paintings (Image Gallery) - World History Encyclopedia
In this gallery, we showcase 30 paintings by Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), the Dutch post-impressionist painter whose use of form and colour changed the world of art forever. The selection here is presented in chronological sequence to show the artist's progression in style from his early interest in capturing humble peasant life to his spell in Paris and on to the iconic works he produced in the unique light of southern France. The gallery shows van Gogh's most celebrated works, the friends he made, his various haunts in Arles, and his love of painting still life and landscapes in a way that nobody had ever quite done before.
So much is demanded nowadays that painting seems like a campaign, a military campaign, a battle or a war.

An 1884 oil on canvas painting, Weaver near an Open Window, by Vincent van Gogh (1853-90), the Dutch post-impressionist artist. Painted in July in Nuenen, the Netherlands. The artist made a series of studies of weavers, very often, as here, with the light from a window making a stark contrast with the dark interior. (Bavarian State Painting Collections, Munich)
