Vincent Van Gogh spent the last two months of his life in Auvers-sur-Oise, FR before his death in July, 1890. He was at his most prolific period in this last residence and some of his best works come from this brief 70 day period when the artist produced 74 paintings and 33 drawings, including some iconic works. Paintings such as “Crows Over A Wheatfield,” “Tree Roots”, “Daubigny’s Garden,” “Church at Auvers,” “View of Auvers-sur-Oise,” and multiple “Portraits of Dr. Gachet” were created in Auvers.

This lecture will focus exclusively on the prolific creative burst of life and energy Van Gogh demonstrated just prior to his death at age 37.

Thomas Germano is a Full professor of Art and Art History at Farmingdale State College/SUNY. He also teaches a Graduate Seminar at the New York Academy of Art, NYC and before the international health crisis, taught an annual class alternating in studio painting and Renaissance Art History in Florence, Roma and Lucca, Italy.  He holds an MFA in Painting from Yale University and a BFA from Cornell University, concentrating in painting and minoring in art history.
