The document discusses Vincent van Gogh's painting "Painter on the Road to Tarascon" from 1888. It was a self-portrait of Van Gogh traveling with his artwork. The painting was considered a lost masterpiece and rare glimpse into his life as a traveling painter. Unfortunately, the painting was destroyed by Nazis during World War II for being considered "degenerate art". While the sole artist appears alone on a hot journey, it was made shortly before he would meet his friend Paul Gauguin. The destruction of this painting took away an insight into Van Gogh's life and work during an important time period.

51. Lost Painting by Vincent van Gogh-The Road to Tarascon
The painting on the Road to Tarascon is a self-portrait of Vincent van Gogh traveling with its artwork in 1888. It was seen as a lost masterpiece and a rare glimpse into van Gogh’s life as
an individualist and a traveling painter. To him real painters don’t paint things how they are but they do paint them as they feel they are. Francis Bacon thought it was a haunting painting
of van Gogh as an outsider to the world.
Even though the artist is alone, hot, and following a path between Arles and Tarascon he will be meeting his friend Paul Gauguin in less than a month. Within a year of this time he had a
seizure and within two years sold his first piece of artwork. With all of his life’s happenings his dark shadow indicates his only true friend is himself.
The Nazi’s removed and destroyed the art as a degenerate for their culture. It was believed, at that time in history, that anyone not part of the overall Germanic bloodlines created art that
was insulting to religion, Germans, and the world. Other artists were told not to paint if their art was not of sufficient Germanic qualities and regular inspections of their homes were
common. Anything that did not conform was removed.
Vincent was a child who drew pictures and began painting in his late twenties. Over 2,100 paintings were produced and only six were ruined or destroyed. Much of his time was spent as
an art trader and he desired to someday be a pastor. As he matured his works became stronger and brighter. It is believed that his distinct style contributed to his overall success as a
painter. It was his type of signature.
52. GOGH, Vincent van
Van Gogh generally considered the greatest after Rembrandt, and one of the
greatest of the Post-Impressionists.
The striking colour, emphatic brushwork, and contoured forms of his work
powerfully influenced the current of Expressionism in modern art. Van
Gogh’s art became astoundingly popular after his death, especially in the late
20th century, when his work sold for record-breaking sums at auctions
around the world and was featured in blockbuster touring exhibitions.
