(c) Although it's said that Van Gogh(1853-1890)sold only one painting during his lifetime,.different theories exist(存在)， It is true that The Red Vineyard is the only painting sold during Van Gogh's lifetime,and that was officially()recorded and accepted by the art world.It's recorded that Van Gogh started painting at 27 and died at 37.His famous paintings were produced after he went to France in 1888,only two years before he died.So it wouid be clear that he did not sell many. However,others disagree.The leading Van Gogh scholar,Marc,is one of them. Though the story that Van Gogh sold just one painting still goes around,he insists that Van Gogh sold at least two Also,according to the Van Gogh Museum website,Van Gogh actually sold a number of paintings for living during his lifetime.His first money came from his uncle,who was an art dealer.In order to help Van Gogh's career,he ordered 19 paintings.And Van Gogh himself would often trade his paintings for food or art supplies when he was younger. Van Gogh died in July of 1890.Ilis brother was a wisc dealer and saved lots of paintings by Van Gogh.His greatest wish was to make the works more widely known and make much money.Sadly he himself died just six months later.He left a large collection of art to his wife,who sold some of Van Gogh's works,lent as many as she could to exhibitions,and published many of Van Gogh's letters to his brother.

What is driving India's population growth?Well,one of the biggest reasons is its young people.Nearly haif of the country's population is under the age of 25. Because of this,scientists believe that India's population will reach the top in 2065.
