Disturbed Artists

Disturbed Artists

 

Van Gogh

 

From insanity

and starry nights in treatment

came a work of art.

------------------------------------------

 

Modigliani

 

He lived for today.

Yesterday and tomorrow

were questionable..

 

His tuberculosis

soon to be his cause of death

was his secret, kept.

----------------------------------------

 

Paganini

 

He fiddled with life 

but divine music arose

from his violin.

 

Paganini played 

with three strings slashed, what others

failed with four attached.

------------------------------------------------

 

Edvard Munch

 

Pity “ The Sick Child”

based on his dear sister’s death

his first “soul painting.”

 

“Inger on the Beach”

earns a rocky reception.

Art misunderstood.

 

Self portrait “The Scream.”

He was stretched to the limit. 

Screamed of Nature’s truth.

    I e always had my own love affair with Van Gogh ever since I studied his work at school, a lunatic? I beg to differ a genius moreover. 🌹 Wonderful write dear friend.
