299 Rs
Vincent van Gogh (1853-90) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter whose work had a far-reaching influence on 20th-century art. In just over a decade, he produced more than 2,100 artworks but received little recognition during his lifetime.
Van Gogh was unsuccessful during his lifetime and was considered a madman and a failure. He became famous after his suicide, and exists in the public imagination as the quintessential misunderstood and tortured genius artist.

About A Crab On Its Back
In bad weather, or if a strong wind prevented him from painting outside, Van Gogh often painted still life's. He may have come upon the idea of painting this crab after seeing Japanese prints of the same subject. He devoted close study to the effect of light and shade on the crab's shell, representing the shading as in a drawing, with short dashes. Painted in what – for him – was considerable detail, the crab seems to be moving in a deep green sea of brushstrokes.About the Art Prints
