Early life of Van Gogh
Van Gogh returned to Etten in April 1881 for an extended stay
with his parents. He continued to draw, often using his neighbors
as subjects. In August 1881, his recently widowed cousin, Cornelia
Vos-Stricker, daughter of his mother's older sister arrived for
a visit.
He was thrilled and took long walks with her. Cornelia was seven
years older than he was and had an eight-year-old son. Van Gogh
surprised everyone by declaring his love to her and proposing marriage.
She refused with the words: "nooit, neen, nimmer" (nay, no, never).

Upon Vincent van Gogh's death in 1890, his unsold work fell
into the possession of his brother Theo. Theo died six months
after Vincent, leaving the work in the possession of his widow,
Johanna van Gogh-Bonger. Selling many of Vincent's paintings with
the ambition of spreading knowledge of his artwork, Johanna
maintained a private collection of his works. The collection
was inherited by her son Vincent Willem van Gogh in 1925, who
eventually loaned it to the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, where
it was displayed for many years. Finally, it was transferred to the
state-initiated Vincent van Gogh Foundation in 1962.

<h1>Self portraits</h1>
<p>
Van Gogh created more than 43 self-portraits between 1885 and 1889.
They were usually completed in series, such as those painted in Paris
in mid-1887, and continued until shortly before his death. Generally
the portraits were studies, created during introspective periods when
he was reluctant to mix with others, or when he lacked models, and
so painted himself.
