Born
on 30 March 1855 Vincent was poor and often hungry and ill throughout
his life. His first masterpiece the Potato Eaters
illustrated
peasant poverty.
He developed his own individual style of brushwork
and colorful palette, and was a pioneer of
Expressionism, using color for its emotive appeal, and profoundly influenced the Fauves
and other experimenters of
20th century art.
