Who is Van Gogh

Van Gogh is a genius.
People have used several adjectives for Van Gogh. Most of the times he has been called insane. But just imagine can an insane person create the pictures he did? Did he not show that he had full control over his senses when he drew the beautiful creations sitting on the window of the mental asylum? People say that a person who cuts off his own earlobe can be nothing but insane.
If being insane means able to open up one's mind so be it. If being insane means being able to see what others ignore or do not see, then so be it.
He is one person who came closest to his creator and saw the creations just like him.
By God, he was a genius.
