Loving Vincent Page #2
Vincent, Theo was dead loo.
Wow, the two of them.
So how did Vincent die?
He shot himself in
loved painting to the end.
Do you know why?
No.
Theo thought his unhappiness
went right back to childhood.
He tried so hard to
fit into his family.
But, he never succeeded in this.
Vincent told me he was the
oldest but Not The first.
There was another Vincent,
He thought that boy
was the perfect Vincent
up to in his mother's eyes.
He struggled to be what
they wanted him to be.
He joined his uncle's
art dealership
and was thrown out in disgrace.
He tried for his father's
profession, the church,
but the pastor exams
were too hard for him,
so he took a job as
a lowly missionary.
He managed to get
sacked even from that.
Yet another dead end.
But, Theo says he
believes in him
and that if Vincent
will fight for himself,
And, that was it.
Vincent picks up a brush
for the first time at 28,
and with Theo's support,
there is no stopping him.
So what happened then?
Paris happened.
He came here of course.
They all do.
Everyone does.
Monet, Toulouse, Seingnac,
Bernard, Manet, everybody
because everything that
happens in art happens here.
And, where do they
all buy their paints?
Pare Tanguy's of course.
Waitress a drink.
Make it pure.
Cheers.
We'll see if it's pure.
We'll keep that, thank you.
Pure is purer.
We must Be fine,
to the buyer an ego
But, a weekend painter.
Look at him always drawing.
What is it you were
saying on entry?
Which way up is it?
Grow up Henri.
Lei me finish
it in a minute for him.
Oh I forgot You can't.
You're being vile.
The vile doth deny.
For many artists,
Paris is a final destination
but not for him.
It was a stopover to learn
what he needed to learn,
and then he was off in
search of his own path.
You've done it.
It Was in his sleep.
It's the kindest thing.
I saw him once
more after two years.
He was calmer, more assured.
Take good care.
And, I thought this is a man
whose story will end well.
His star finally rising,
his revolution won.
So think how shocking
it was to be standing
over Vincent's coffin
just six weeks later.
So sad.
For many he died
a martyr for art,
but for me, it seems odd.
Why?
In only eight
years, he had traveled
from amateur to an artist
of influence, unbelievable.
Monet declared him
the shining star
of the Independent
Artist's Fair.
And, he was cured
according to his doctor,
Dr. Gachet who had looked
after Vincent in Auvers.
