I heard about this film two years ago that it will be made with Van Gogh's paintings. I didn't expect two years to go by so quickly. I just want to say that the agile brushstrokes move frame by frame, as if Van Gogh's paintings come to life. Among the paintings of all schools, the Impressionists are the most popular, and among all the Impressionist masters, Van Gogh must be the most controversial. I came to Arles more than two years ago, like many people who came here, not to find the so-called Roman ruins, but to find the traces left by a painter named Van Gogh. Arles is one of the top five ancient cities in the world that retains the remains of the Roman Empire. When you are in it, you think you have come to Italy, not France. The ancient city walls and weathered and dilapidated stones reveal the splendor of history everywhere. However, unlike other ancient cities, there is a bright yellow that appears in front of our eyes from time to time, which is the favorite color of Van Gogh during his lifetime. It can be said that no matter where you walk in Arles, there is Van Gogh's shadow, and the scenes in his paintings are presented one by one in reality. The most beautiful part of Europe is that when we follow the ancients, we can still have a sense of "things are different from others". Unlike our great celestial dynasty, even with so many years of history, in reality, there is nowhere to place our emotions. Here, we can still reminisce, we can still remember, we can still be in the same place and watch the same scenery to simulate the same mood as the painter. After visiting all the places where Van Gogh painted, reality and painting overlap and complement each other, and nothing has changed. It's just that Van Gogh's paintings are more realistic and add a fairy tale color, especially "Starry Sky". Although the water here is calm, reflecting lights and star points, the light is far less bright than Van Gogh's. In reality, Van Gogh is unhappy, but in his heart, he yearns for light. Van Gogh's life was quite unfortunate. Poverty consumed him, and the cold eyes of people around him, including relatives and strangers, completely exhausted him. The movie deduces Van Gogh's life and cause of death through the letters of Van Gogh and his younger brother Theo. In fact, it doesn't make much sense to look back. The deceased is dead. May he rest in peace. . Van Gogh's paintings always have a strong emotion. He likes to use starry blue and sunflower yellow the most. These two colors are typical chiaroscuro colors, giving people a strong visual impact. Not to mention, he did not use a brush at all. Instead, the painting is covered with heavy paint, and when viewed from the side, the petals overflow the painting. It is also distressed that Theo, who is not rich at all, has bought how many orders for his brother's waste. Without Theo family, there would be no Van Gogh we know. Theo supported his creation during his lifetime, a spiritual thing In essence, after Theo died, his wife was still wandering about Van Gogh's paintings. The unfortunate Van Gogh was actually lucky. "When I paint a sun, I want people to feel it is spinning at an incredible speed, sending out terrifying waves of light and heat. When I paint a field of wheat, I want people to feel that the wheat is heading towards its final ripening and blooming Work hard. When I draw an apple tree, I want people to feel that the juice in the apple is propping up the peel, and the seed in the core is pushing for fruit. When I draw a man, I draw His eloquent life. If there is no longer something infinite, profound, and real in life, I will no longer be attached to the world..." ——Van Gogh's letter to his younger brother Van Gogh realized in his intense and short life his dream. 2017-12-10 21:26

Loving Vincent quotes

  • Vincent van Gogh: Who am I in the eyes of most people? A nobody, a non entity, an unpleasant person. Someone who has not, and never will have any position in society. In short, the lowest of the low. Well then even if that were all absolutely true, then one day I will have to show by my work what this nobody, this non entity has in his heart.

  • Vincent van Gogh: Dr. Gachet is eccentric. I don't Know how he thinks he can cure me when he seems at least as sick as I am.
