Summary

In late spring, 1890, Vincent moves to Auvers-sur-Oise, which is located near Paris. He is there under the care of Dr. Gachet and living in a humble inn. Fewer than 70 days later, Vincent is dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Vincent works on his painting, including his landscapes and portraits. His brother Theo, wife Johanna, and their baby visit Auvers. Vincent is playful and charming. Vincent engages the attentions of Gachet's daughter Marguerite, a young maid at the inn, a Parisian prostitute named Cathy, and even Johanna. Shortly before his death, Vincent visits Paris, quarrels with Theo, disparages his own art and accomplishments, dances at a brothel, and is warm then cold toward Marguerite
