so allegedly vincent went crazy cuz he was rejected by literally everything and everyone he ever encountered, including whole towns like arles.
but nobody really knew what was wrong with vincent but some ppl think that he was bipolar with epilepsy. or maybe he was just super bummed cuz everybody was generally a royal douche to him??

then vincent started hanging out at these bullfighting games to take a break from fighting with gauguin, cuz they lived in a tiny ass yellow house. in these games when the bullfighter won they would cut off the bull’s ear and give it to the bullfighter cuz why not?
but gauguin and vincent started having mad beef and vincent threatened him with a razor. so naturally vincent then cut off his ear with his shaving razor, wrapped it in newspaper, and brought it to his favourite prostitute at the brothel, because who doesn’t love a severed ear?
then he just chilled in arles for awhile and ppl tried to help him but vincent was like “u guys are poisoning me” and people threw rotten food at him in the street ???
then everybody in arles was like FFS vincent, and petitioned to the mayor to have him committed so they did

finishing watching the van gogh documentary. now its at the part where van gogh started chilling with these flashy soldiers in arles and met this one soldier dude that would go to the brothels before an army exam to “get himself in the right frame of mind” and vincent was like “damn bro, i wish i could be like that.” then they randomly throw in that gauguin hung out with van gogh later and was into some freeky shit in bed. then everybody kicked van gogh out of arles cuz all the girls at the brothel said he was a creep, he was busy reading and painting these young japanese girls. then he wrote a letter to his brother theo and he was like “i drink too much and now i cant get my dick hard” so he had mad blue balls and it showed in his art
then he was like “well fuck then imma paint starry night cuz the night is better than the day anyway.” and it was so dark out so he lit the top of his hat on fire to be able to see to paint
you cant make this up

and then he lived in this tiny ass place in paris that was rly messy and he complained to everybody about how messy it was and his family was like k fine if you stfu about everything we’ll enroll you in art school so you can move, so they did
also van gogh apparently used to just walk around like “wat u wanna fight me” to everybody all the time
then toulouse lautrec drew him drunk in a cafe cuz they were bros and used to hit up the brothels together, as bros do, and then vincent drank absinthe and went crazy for a little awhile
