Gosh, so hard to pronounce! 00:01:55.755 --> 00:01:58.805 known by Thais as van Gogh, is a Dutch post-impressionist painter. 00:01:58.825 --> 00:02:01.805 He led a very sad life. 00:02:01.805 --> 00:02:04.965 When he reached the age of 17-18, 00:02:05.215 --> 00:02:08.305 he went to intern at a gallery 00:02:08.305 --> 00:02:10.625 that sold paintings. 00:02:11.185 --> 00:02:14.025 After interning in his hometown, 00:02:14.025 --> 00:02:15.665 he was sent to Paris 00:02:16.015 --> 00:02:18.865 which you might know that Paris was the 00:02:18.865 --> 00:02:19.865 00:02:20.045 --> 00:02:23.235 capital of art. 00:02:23.235 --> 00:02:24.925 He thought he was going to succeed in life, 00:02:25.715 --> 00:02:28.745 but no. Because he was a sincere person; 00:02:28.745 --> 00:02:31.345 didn't like lying or taking advantage 00:02:31.345 --> 00:02:34.745 he didn't succeed in selling pictures. 00:02:34.915 --> 00:02:37.985 The gallery he was working at liked to take 00:02:37.985 --> 00:02:39.265 low quality paintings and 00:02:40.105 --> 00:02:43.275 tell people that "This is a masterpiece!" 00:02:43.275 --> 00:02:46.245 Therefore, the price is very high. 00:02:46.245 --> 00:02:49.555 van Gogh would then whisper the truth 00:02:49.665 --> 00:02:52.715 to customers. 00:02:52.715 --> 00:02:54.215 The owner then found out 00:02:54.785 --> 00:02:56.225 and fired van Gogh. 00:02:56.825 --> 00:02:59.745 That was his first episode of the unfortunate series, 00:02:59.745 --> 00:03:02.455 so he thought he wasn't good in business 00:03:02.675 --> 00:03:04.425 and turned to religion. 00:03:04.845 --> 00:03:08.025 00:03:08.225 --> 00:03:11.235 So, he plunged into a religious life 00:03:11.235 --> 00:03:13.855 he studied and tried to become a pastor. 00:03:13.855 --> 00:03:14.855 He got to deliver a sermon in a town 00:03:16.095 --> 00:03:17.895 but because he wasn't good with public speaking 00:03:21.685 --> 00:03:22.685 [I'm not good with words but my heart is yours] 00:03:25.075 --> 00:03:28.135 Not good with speeches, but wanted to be a pastor 00:03:28.135 --> 00:03:32.695 didn't work out. He didn't succeed 00:03:33.025 --> 00:03:35.495 so he turned his back to religion 00:03:35.495 --> 00:03:38.875 and realized that art was his calling. 00:03:38.875 --> 00:03:42.255 "If I don't want to sell pictures, I'll paint them myself" 00:03:42.665 --> 00:03:45.495 So during 1880 to around 1890, 00:03:45.495 --> 00:03:47.205 these ten years, van Gogh 00:03:47.545 --> 00:03:50.445 became a painter and produced so many paintings. 00:03:50.445 --> 00:03:53.295 Just in a decade, 00:03:53.295 --> 00:03:56.305 he painted around 00:03:56.305 --> 00:03:59.165 2,100 paintings. 00:03:59.165 --> 00:04:02.035 Try estimating how many days he used per painting. 00:04:02.035 --> 00:04:05.015 His paintings weren't simple sketches, but 00:04:05.020 --> 00:04:08.140 were oil paintings in big frames. 00:04:08.140 --> 00:04:10.340 He painted so many works! 00:04:10.700 --> 00:04:13.740 His style is post-impressionism: 00:04:13.740 --> 00:04:17.220 bright colours, exciting brushwork. 00:04:17.565 --> 00:04:20.855 If you look closely at his work, you can see 00:04:20.855 --> 00:04:21.855 how his brush swifts. 00:04:22.095 --> 00:04:25.145 When they try to prove a van Gogh, 00:04:25.145 --> 00:04:28.175 they usually prove it from the brushwork. 00:04:28.175 --> 00:04:30.785 Moreover, van Gogh's subjects are usually 00:04:30.785 --> 00:04:33.585 simple daily life objects 00:04:33.585 --> 00:04:36.540 to show that there's nothing more to life. 00:04:36.540 --> 00:04:39.560 Apart from that, he wasn't an introvert, not interested 00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:42.695 in meeting other people like other artists, 00:04:42.695 --> 00:04:48.735 So he got to meet other renowned artists 00:04:48.735 --> 00:04:51.415 especially his best friend, Paul Gauguin 00:04:51.415 --> 00:04:54.355 I believe you have heard his name. 00:04:54.375 --> 00:04:57.425 Which leads us to the next painting: 00:04:57.425 --> 00:04:58.895 00:04:59.265 --> 00:05:01.935 "The Sunflowers" 00:05:01.935 --> 00:05:05.145 This painting is actually part of a collection. 00:05:05.145 --> 00:05:08.175 00:05:08.175 --> 00:05:11.005 The collection is entitled "Decoration for the Yellow House." 00:05:11.005 --> 00:05:12.005 00:05:12.215 --> 00:05:15.625 These paintings were painted to decorate a yellow house. 00:05:15.685 --> 00:05:18.705 Yes, literally yellow. This is van Gogh's house in France 00:05:18.705 --> 00:05:21.815 which Gauguin was going to stay at for a while. 00:05:21.815 --> 00:05:24.835 Out of love for his friend, van Gogh wanted to decorate 00:05:24.835 --> 00:05:27.845 Gauguin's room with a painting of sunflowers 00:05:27.845 --> 00:05:30.855 "See Gauguin, life is simple" 00:05:30.855 --> 00:05:33.855 "There is no need for extravagant decor" 00:05:33.855 --> 00:05:36.335 "just a picture of sunflowers can brighten up your day" 00:05:36.385 --> 00:05:37.865 This moved Gauguin so much that 00:05:38.255 --> 00:05:41.035 he said that the sunflower collection 00:05:41.035 --> 00:05:43.825 is van Gogh's best work. 00:05:43.825 --> 00:05:46.335 It's his masterpiece. 00:05:46.335 --> 00:05:49.295 The two were really close. 00:05:49.295 --> 00:05:51.975 When van Gogh was painting that collection, 00:05:51.975 --> 00:05:55.305 Gauguin also painted a picture of van Gogh painting the sunflowers 00:05:55.335 --> 00:05:58.655 like a painting of a painting of a painting. 00:05:58.945 --> 00:06:01.865 They had a really close relationship, 00:06:01.865 --> 00:06:04.875 and also had some dramas like 00:06:04.875 --> 00:06:07.795 when van Gogh was depressed 00:06:07.795 --> 00:06:10.485 because his unsuccessful life. 00:06:10.485 --> 00:06:13.005 His paintings were rarely sold when he was alive. 00:06:13.425 --> 00:06:18.985 He only became famous posthumously. 00:06:19.355 --> 00:06:22.505 Once, van Gogh was painting and got mad. 00:06:22.505 --> 00:06:25.035 He took a blade and 00:06:25.035 --> 00:06:28.045 chased Gauguin around 00:06:28.045 --> 00:06:31.175 and after unsuccessfully hurting Gauguin, 00:06:31.535 --> 00:06:34.685 he used that blade to cut his ear off 00:06:34.685 --> 00:06:37.705 and then painted a portrait of himself without the ear. 00:06:37.705 --> 00:06:40.735 You might have heard this story. 00:06:40.735 --> 00:06:41.735 00:06:42.535 --> 00:06:45.565 Because of his mental illness, he committed suicide 00:06:45.565 --> 00:06:48.345 at the age of 37. Such a short life. 00:06:48.345 --> 00:06:51.215 If he lived longer, we would've been 00:06:51.215 --> 00:06:54.285 able to appreciate more of his art. 00:06:54.285 --> 00:06:57.155 Despite being able to sell only one painting 00:06:57.295 --> 00:07:00.455 from more than 2,000 paintings 00:07:00.455 --> 00:07:03.485 when he was alive, 00:07:03.485 --> 00:07:06.555 his work became a hit after he died. 00:07:06.555 --> 00:07:09.115 Many people bought and sold his work. 00:07:09.115 --> 00:07:11.835 It could be said that 00:07:11.835 --> 00:07:14.925 his life was quite sad. He couldn't even see his fame. 00:07:14.925 --> 00:07:17.975 You can see how popular he is. 00:07:17.975 --> 00:07:20.655 It's the only painting people look at. 00:07:20.655 --> 00:07:22.925 00:07:22.925 --> 00:07:25.775 This is "Sunflowers" painted in 1888. 00:07:25.775 --> 00:07:27.665 00:07:27.665 --> 00:07:30.495 The "Sunflower" behind me, 00:07:30.495 --> 00:07:33.305 he painted it in yellow 00:07:33.305 --> 00:07:36.215 to show his friendship. 00:07:36.215 --> 00:07:39.215 At first, it was hung in 00:07:39.215 --> 00:07:42.435 the guest's room in van Gogh's house. 00:07:42.435 --> 00:07:45.175 He was very proud of this painting. 00:07:45.175 --> 00:07:48.225 Sunflowers are the symbol of appreciation, 00:07:48.225 --> 00:07:50.795 and gratitude. 00:07:50.795 --> 00:07:53.535 I tried oil paintings when I was little 00:07:53.535 --> 00:07:55.145 and I studied from this painting. 00:07:55.455 --> 00:07:58.485 Never thought I'd be able to see the original. 00:07:58.485 --> 00:08:01.405 I think this is also a type of a nerd. 00:08:01.405 --> 00:08:04.325 You might not know I painted too. 00:08:04.325 --> 00:08:07.015 I did oil painting, pastel, acrylic 00:08:07.015 --> 00:08:09.985 but now all my skills are gone. 00:08:09.985 --> 00:08:13.105 All that's left are the illustrations for my videos. 00:08:13.105 --> 00:08:16.225 Let's talk about the sunflower collection. 00:08:16.225 --> 00:08:19.265 It's a collection because there isn't just one. 00:08:19.265 --> 00:08:22.205 Right? 00:08:22.205 --> 00:08:25.155 When I showed the painting, you might've wondered 00:08:25.155 --> 00:08:28.425 it doesn't look like the one I've seen. 00:08:28.425 --> 00:08:31.475 There are 7 paintings is this set; painted continuously. 00:08:31.555 --> 00:08:34.715 Each painting is scattered in different parts of the world. 00:08:34.715 --> 00:08:37.805 The 7 paintings are grouped into 2 sets. 00:08:37.805 --> 00:08:40.455 The first group are the first 4 paintings. 00:08:40.455 --> 00:08:43.075 They are the original paintings intended to decorate the room. 00:08:43.075 --> 00:08:46.165 The other 3 are his favourites 00:08:46.165 --> 00:08:49.245 so he copied the first 4 and made another set. 00:08:49.245 --> 00:08:52.185 So where can you see all 7? 00:08:52.455 --> 00:08:55.755 Sadly, you can't see all 7. 00:08:55.755 --> 00:09:01.485 Because the first is now private property. 00:09:01.485 --> 00:09:04.435 We can only see it if the owner lets us. 00:09:04.435 --> 00:09:07.525 The second one is even harder to see. 00:09:07.705 --> 00:09:10.775 It was bought by a Japanese buyer to be installed in a museum 00:09:10.775 --> 00:09:13.835 but during the second world war, 00:09:13.835 --> 00:09:17.265 Japan was bombed, 00:09:17.265 --> 00:09:19.265 and the painting disappeared along with other stuff. 00:09:19.635 --> 00:09:22.685 Now, people are trying to recreate this painting 00:09:22.685 --> 00:09:25.565 from old photographs 00:09:25.565 --> 00:09:28.285 but haven't succeeded yet. 00:09:28.635 --> 00:09:31.605 It's hard to achieve his brushwork 00:09:31.605 --> 00:09:32.605 and other elements. 00:09:33.285 --> 00:09:36.455 So, we just have to wait. 00:09:36.455 --> 00:09:39.545 If you're a fan of Conan the Detective 00:09:39.545 --> 00:09:40.595 Surprising to see that they're connected, right?

Take the Romans as an example. 00:11:12.220 --> 00:11:12.725 00:11:13.365 --> 00:11:16.275 00:11:16.275 --> 00:11:18.535 This is one of his significant works. 00:11:18.535 --> 00:11:20.535 This is another van Gogh.

"Go paint beautiful things!" 00:14:51.260 --> 00:14:54.440 So he introduced a new chapter of art 00:14:54.540 --> 00:14:56.540 Right here is a painting 00:14:56.545 --> 00:14:57.100 by another famous painter 00:14:57.105 --> 00:15:00.135 like van Gogh 00:15:00.135 --> 00:15:02.865 which is Monet 00:15:02.865 --> 00:15:04.665 Thais may not know, but he is famous so I'll show you. 00:15:04.665 --> 00:15:06.925 So you can see the whole gallery. 00:15:06.925 --> 00:15:09.705 Monet is van Gogh's contemporary 00:15:09.705 --> 00:15:12.755 but he succeeded is his career 00:15:12.755 --> 00:15:15.005 and became very rich 00:15:15.005 --> 00:15:18.035 that he could buy a house. 00:15:18.035 --> 00:15:21.005 In that house he had a big lotus pond 00:15:21.005 --> 00:15:23.875 which inspired him to paint this painting 00:15:23.875 --> 00:15:26.805 of the pond. 00:15:26.805 --> 00:15:29.595 You might be familiar with this painting, so I wanted to show you. 00:15:29.595 --> 00:15:32.885 So how was the tour? 00:15:32.885 --> 00:15:35.855 It must have made you art nerds 00:15:35.855 --> 00:15:39.065 excited to some extent. 00:15:39.065 --> 00:15:41.855 If you went to Louvre, when you go see Mona Lisa 00:15:41.855 --> 00:15:44.915 or other works, you can only see from afar 00:15:44.915 --> 00:15:47.725 and there is always a crowd 00:15:47.725 --> 00:15:50.565 but at National Gallery Museum, England, 00:15:50.565 --> 00:15:53.145 the works are very accessible 00:15:53.145 --> 00:15:56.265 there is only a thin line, and the paintings are inches away 00:15:56.265 --> 00:15:59.725 we can observe the brushwork of van Gogh closely. 00:15:59.745 --> 00:16:02.775 So if you go to England and like art 00:16:02.775 --> 00:16:05.815 I recommend you to go there.
