Vincent Van Gogh's Most Expensive Painting?
The first version of Doctor Paul Gachet is Vincent Van Gogh's most expensive painting. The vast majority of Vincent van Gogh's works have been sold during the 80s or before the 90s and at the time, those costs were marvelously high and were breaking records in a steady progression.
We would simply need to hang tight for one of van Gogh's works to be sold currently until we will realize how much worth is there in Van Gogh's artworks.

Vincent van Gogh made different pictures of Joseph Roulin and every one of his relatives. Joseph Roulin—who shows up in this composition is shining in his blue uniform against a flower foundation that echoes his rich, whirling whiskers—and he, by the way, was among Vincent van Gogh's most significant companions.
The two lived on a similar road in Arles, in the South of France, where Roulin worked for the postal assistance. Roulin was a passionate communist, energetic in his role of the left-wing of French republican governmental issues.Â

A Wheatfield with Cypresses by Vincent Van Gogh
The Deal: Sold in May 1993 by the child of Emil Georg Buhrle to Walter H. Annenberg at a Private Sale. For: $57 million. Balanced Price: $94.1 million. One of the renowned works by the artist. It is a scene from the back windows of his room of the clinic at Arles.
This scene is one of the greatest compositions among Van Gogh's works. It is developed in extraordinary groups that navigate the whole space. The tall dull cypress trees at one side offer an amazing differentiation to the overall horizontals, which they look like in form.
The resistances of warm and cool, the proportioning of parts, the overall stature of sky and earth on the different sides, the even interims which we can gauge on the outline of the removed mountain, twice broken by trees - all these are consummately neat and very much adjusted.
