Short history look back : About Van Gogh

Vincent van Gogh, born in 1853, became one of the most famous post-impressionist artists in the world alongside names like Claude Monet, Paul Cezanne, Edgar Degas and Pierre-Auguste Renoir.
Van Gogh completed over 2,100 works including 860 oil paintings and 1,300 watercolours, sketches and drawings. His paintings portrayed how he saw and personally felt each scenario – he interpreted every detail with his eyes, mind and soul.
Van Gogh only sold one painting in his lifetime, but his work and life would forever change the art world. Today, his paintings rank among the most expensive in history.

回顧: 關於梵高
梵高，生於1853年，堪稱史上最為著名的後印象派藝術家之一，與莫奈、塞尚、德加、雷諾阿等大師齊名。
梵高創作出逾兩千一百幅作品，當中包括八百六十幅油畫跟一千三百幅水彩畫、素描跟繪圖。他在每一幅作品的細節上，細緻地反映其所見、所想，及所感受的一切。
縱然梵高於在生時只成功售出一幅畫作，但他的作品及其一生對藝術界影響深遠。梵高的畫作是當今最昂貴的藝術品之一。

The Starry night （De sterrennacht） : A landscape in which the starry night sky takes up two thirds of the picture.
I believed that everyone had seen this picture, this is one of the famous painting and regarded the finest work from Van Gogh in 1890, which is painted inside his asylum room of the mental hospital Saint-Rémy-de-Provence.

星夜（De sterrennacht）：星空與夜空佔據三分之二的風景畫。
我相信每個人都看過這幅畫，這是一幅被視為梵高最精彩的名畫，於1890年在法國聖雷米的一家精神病院庇護室內的創作。
