« Any information on Van Gogh’s “Postman Joseph Roulin”?
is there a record of vincent van gogh ever signing a painting with his last name? »

 

Would the world have been better off if Van Gogh were treated for depression and didn’t committ suicide?

    1. I don’t know if the world would have been “better off” but if Van Gogh was taking medication to surpress his depression, yes, it would have altered his personality therefore altering his art pieces.

    2. He most likely would not have commited suicide if he was on medication. But, who knows.

    3. there are no stupid questions.

    4. yes, this was interesting to think about.

    5. the last one is a little to heavy for me right now.

    I find your question interesting. But I believe it was something he drinked that caused him to be that way. But then again, if he’d gotten help and didn’t commit suicide, then we wouldn’t be looking at his unique artwork today.
