| Vincent van Gogh: |
| |
| The quintessential suffering artist, this astonishingly prolific Dutch painter shocked the Parisian art world with his daring colors and bold brushstrokes, inspiring young artists for decades to come. |
 |
|
| Gustave Klimt: |
| |
| Klimt’s The Kiss has become a modern icon of Eros and romance, but during his own time the artist was condemned by conservative Viennese critics as an immoral pornographer. |
|
|
| Edward Hopper: |
| |
| Almost despite himself, this intensely solitary and private artist irrevocably influenced the evolution of American art with his stark realism and remarkable expression of the loneliness of modern life. |
