Vincent Van Gogh was one of the unhappiest people to ever walk this earth, but was also one of the greatest painters who ever lived. If you are lucky enough to view a quality assortment of his paintings at the Orsay Museum in Paris, the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, or theMetropolitan in New York, you will behold the pinnacle of human expression in art. His paintings come to life with vibrant colors and deep textured brush strokes that mirror the soul of this brilliant and tortured man.

Even van Gogh himself suggested that the image of Sunflowers belonged to him. To Theo he wrote: “the sunflower is mine in a way”. The amazing images he created have forever bonded him with the flower. Van Gogh created the Sunflower series in 1887 - 88. He created nine paintings all together for the series – three with fifteen flowers, two with twelve in 1888 and a year earlier had created a series of four paintings. 

In March 1987 Vase With Fifteen Sunflowers sold for nearly $40 million.
