Cartoon. Man with short spiky hair blown back, wispy mustache and beard, and a white wool vest looks out with a neutral expression. Behind him, a wavy pattern of blue brushstrokes in an impressionist style. Hello, I'm Vincent van Gogh.

Born in Holland in 1853, Vincent van Gogh was unsuccessful in his own lifetime. Today he’s one of the best-loved and most valued artists in history. Playful cartoons and great art combine to show viewers the cranky visionary who found unexpected beauty in the quiet corners of the world. Part of Getting To Know Artists Series.
