killing vincent: the man, the myth, and the murder

love and murder: the last days of vincent van Gogh

suicide or murder?

On July 27, 1890, Vincent van Gogh came stumbling into his room in the Ravoux Inn, in Auvers-sur-Oise, France, bleeding from a wound in his abdomen. Thirty hours later, Vincent was dead. The common myth, which has prevailed for more than 130 years, is that the “mad” artist shot himself in a wheat field after suffering from years of unhappiness and “insanity.” But is that what really happened?

The Killing Vincent Project proved through a forensic peer-review that Vincent did not commit suicide. The details and analysis can be reviewed by clicking here.
