Part –A

Google Arts and Culture works with over 2500 galleries and museums around the world. This

has been done to provide virtual tours and virtual exhibitions of the world's most prominent and

famous galleries. On my first visit, I was ecstatic to see how beautifully they display an

experience with just a click. On site there was a wide range of art, which was indeed a very

difficult task for me to choose among the best ones. However, the site’s operation was incredibly

smooth. They’ve arranged everything in a manner that everybody, including me, can quickly find

whatever we are searching for. Unfortunately, not all well-known art museums and galleries

were able to be included in Google Arts & Culture's list; however, some museums have chosen

to offer online tours. The museum exhibits collections by various historians on different but

interesting topics from the late 19th century art history. This was the reason that compelled me to

visit this gallery by Vincent van Gogh in order to get some virtual exposure. If you are a fan of a

somewhat tragic, genius painter like me, then you should definitely visit this museum, which

houses the world's largest collection of artworks, including over 200 paintings, 500 sketches, and

over 750 private letters. In short, according to my own experience if you are visiting a museum

for the first time in your life, then it will leave you with new knowledge and stunning visual

memories that will inspire you to learn and create your own ideas in a very unique and different

manner. 

Part – B

On March 30, 1853, Vincent van Gogh was born in the Netherlands. (Brooks). Vincent, the

minister's son, attended boarding school until he was fifteen. After almost pledging his life to the

church, Vincent eventually pursued his career in the field of Arts. Vincent van Gogh was a well-
known painter of the nineteenth century. Van Gogh drew as a child and was serious, quiet, and

thoughtful, despite being born into an upper-middle-class family. He worked as an art dealer as a

young man, frequently travelling, but fell into depression after being transferred to London. He

became a Protestant missionary in southern Belgium. After returning home with his parents in

1881, he drifted in ill health and solitude before taking up painting. During his lifetime, Van

Gogh was commercially unsuccessful, and he was regarded as a lunatic and a failure. He didn't

achieve fame or financial success as a result of his paintings until many years after his death. His

works have sold for millions of dollars and have been displayed in numerous museums. Over

900 paintings and 1100 drawings were created by Vincent in just ten years (Ayoub). His main

work, in comparison to his earlier work, was still vibrant at the end but had become more

subdued due to the artist's mental problems while in the asylum. In contrast to other artists, his

work revealed that he used very bright colours and that his brushwork was unique. I'm not sure

who is currently copying him, but some people copy his work and sell it. His job had little to do

with politics; it was more tailored to his emotional state than anything else. Most people think of

Vincent as a Dutch post-impressionist painter known for his rugged beauty. Vincent frequently

drew local peasants because he had a strong affection for the poor who worked hard, and he

admired the artist Millet, who painted field workers (Brooks). He began to paint, and shortly

after his father's death, he completed The Potato Eaters, which is regarded as his first great work.

He had developed into a world-class artist and accomplished everything that was possible for

him in The Netherlands. He then invited himself to live in Paris with his adoring brother Theo

(Vincent van Gogh gallery the art information resource). Van Gogh was only in Paris for two

years, but he saw many of the early impressionists' works on display during that time. During his

time in Paris, Vincent began to use more vibrant impressionist colours, moving away from the
more subdued tones of his earlier work. He was also captivated by Japanese art for the first time.

He only made three pieces of Japanese-style artwork, but it was clear that they influenced his

later work. Vincent van Gogh is widely regarded as the most important Dutch painter of all time.

Van Gogh's works are now among the most expensive paintings ever sold, and his legacy is

honored by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, which houses the world's largest collection of

his paintings and drawing. His work can be found in a number of major museums worldwide. It

was discovered that Vincent had a very dark and unhappy life, but that his incredible artwork

was his greatest passion. The world would always wonder what he would have done if he had

lived a long life. He'd only been painting for ten years when he realised his abilities were

destined for greatness.
