Vincent van Gogh died in Auvers-sur-Oise on 29 July 1890, aged 37, two days after a gunshot wound. The Van Gogh Museum attributes his death to suicide and does not regard the later theory of an accidental shooting by others as convincingly established. The known circumstances should not be turned into a detective legend treated as more certain than the historical evidence.

Theo travelled from Paris and was with his brother when he died. Yet those final weeks were not solely a tragedy: Van Gogh worked intensely and explored new ways of depicting the surrounding fields and village. His life and art were more complex than the stereotype of a permanently isolated and unrecognized painter.
