Most people know of Van Gogh (1853-1890) as the artist who cut
his ear off after having an argument with Gauguin, a fellow artist.
Or they know of his lack of success at his chosen profession. He was
only able to sell one painting and was supported by his younger brother
until his death. Many know of his severe bouts with mental illness,
culminating in a depression that led him to take his own life.
What most people don't know is the fascinating family that
Van Gogh came from. After much careful research, it has been discovered
that the artist had many famous relatives. Among them were:
His dizzy aunt: Verti Gogh
The brother who ate prunes: Gotta Gogh
The brother who worked at a convenience store: Stopn Gogh
The brother who bleached his clothes white: Hue Gogh
The cousin from Illinois: Chica Gogh
His magician uncle: Wherediddy Gogh
His Mexican cousin: Amee Gogh
The Mexican cousin's American half brother: Grin Gogh
The nephew who drove a stagecoach: Wellsfar Gogh
The constipated uncle: Can't Gogh
The ballroom dancing aunt: Tan Gogh
The bird lover uncle: Flamin Gogh
His nephew psychoanalyst: E Gogh
The fruit-loving cousin: Man Gogh
An aunt who taught positive thinking: Wayto Gogh
The little bouncy nephew: Poe Gogh
A sister who loved disco: Go Gogh
His Italian uncle: Day Gogh
And his niece who travels the country in a van: Winnie Bay Gogh
