In the end of 1888 Vincent's mental illness started to show. He suffered from epilepsy, psychotic attacks, and delusions. He cut off his ear and tried to give it as a gift to a prostitute! He had some serious issues. On July 27, 1890 he tried to kill himself by shooting himself in the chest. He lived two days later, then died. His brother Theo saved all of his art, but he died soon after Van Gogh. Theo's wife published Vincent's art and instantly they became famous!
