Secrets of the Dead: Van Gogh's Ear - Documentary Discussions

Even those with little knowledge of art know about the moment when artist Vincent Van Gogh cut off his own ear. The mysterious circumstances surrounding this event, however, were largely unknown...until now. In this episode of PBS’s Secrets of the Dead series, researcher Bernadette Murphy delves into the artist’s state of mind on the night he committed this notorious act and offers fascinating evidence on what really happened that night, who was involved, and how it ultimately shaped Van Gogh’s remarkable art. The perfect mixture of art, psychology, and detective work, you won’t want to miss this discussion!
