Vincent van Gogh: Timeless Masterpieces in Miniature

Here's an interesting factoid about Vincent van Gogh that would captivate art lovers.

Van Gogh only sold one painting during his lifetime. Despite creating over 2,100 artworks (including 860 oil paintings), the only painting he officially sold was The Red Vineyard in 1890 — for just 400 francs (about $2,000 today). It wasn’t until after his death that his work gained worldwide recognition.

This little-known detail makes Van Gogh’s story even more inspiring — a testament to the idea that true art transcends time.
