Vincent Van Gogh was born in the Netherlands, 1853 - 1890. Van Gogh spent his early adult life working for a firm of art dealers. After a brief spell as a teacher, he became a missionary worker in a very poor mining region. Van Gogh did not embark upon a career as an artist until 1880. Most of his best-known works were produced in the final two years of his life. The central figure in Van Gogh's life was his friend and brother Theo who continually and selflessly provided financial support. "Irises" was painted in 1889 and was probably a study as there are no known drawings of the piece. This famous Van Gogh painting was most likely influenced by the Japanese woodblocks of the era and it is among the most expensive paintings ever sold.
