Cotonetes Van Gogh.: O sentimento de um ocidental.

E, enorme, nesta massa irregular
De prédios sepulcrais, com dimensões de montes,
A Dor humana busca os amplos horizontes,
E tem marés de fel como um sinistro mar!

do poema "Horas Mortas"

Cesário Verde

Lunchtime Atop a Skyscraper, 1932, Charles C. Ebbets

WHY DID VINCENT VAN GOGH CUT OFF HIS OWN EAR?

"It is the most well-known incident in art history."

"Sometimes he was violent and his neighbors were afraid of him."

"After the ear incident, related to Gauguin, he committed himself to an asylum.

There were beautiful gardens there."

"Absinthe. Consumed in the late 1800s by bohemian Parisian society. The reason? It caused madness in those who imbibed with hallucinations, suicides and even murder. Absinthe sharpens the senses, inspires brilliance and delivers a taste unlike anything else."

"He then put it in a towel, went to his favourite brothel, where he showed this present to a prostitute."

"It's a fact that Van Gogh suffered from syphilis contracted from prostitutes."

"He put the ear into an envelope and sent it to a brothel where a friend prostitute named Rachel worked.

He wrote: "Guard this object carefully."
