Vincent Van Gogh, (which - that - who) was born in Holland in 1853, is one of the most famous painters.
Altough his talent was recognized throughout (his - its - it's) life, it was much appreciated after his death.
After he had (achieved - failed - succeeded) in every career he had attempted, Van Gogh first turned to art to express his strong religious feelings.
After he had decided to (become - belong - remain) a painter in about 1880, he started to paint studies of peasants and miners.
During the (previous - next - earlier) few years, called the Dutch period, he produced paintings with rather dark greenish-browncolours.
In 1886, when he went to Paris to visit his brother Theo, he was immediately attracted to the Impressionist work he saw (here - within - there).
He decided to stay in Paris and continued his painting there. He was encouraged (from - by - over) Pissarro to use more colour in his pictures and his subsequent paintings were (dark - bright - gloomy) and immensely colourful.
After Van Gogh had moved (in - to - on) Arles, in the South of France in 1888, he worked frenetically. In this period, interrupted by moments of deep depression, he produced the majority of his (most - much - least) famous paintings.
One of these, (whom - which - who) is called Self protrait with bandaged ear, shows Van Gogh: he was wearing a bandage after he had cut off his own ear.
A year (before - earlier - later) in 1890, he committed suicide.
A (few - lot - piece) is known about Van Gogh's life and his feelings, because of the hundreds of letters written to his brother Theo and others.
