ゴッホはよくミレーを模倣したといわれるが、その色使いは極めて大きな差異がある。優れた画家には勿論才能もいるが、豊富な画材も必要だった。パリの新印象主義のもっとも大きな影響は、点と線の鮮やかな色使いだったが、当時鮮やかな色は高価な代物だったのである。ゴッホが貧困だった理由のひとつは画商の弟テオの経済的支援の殆どを、生活以上に画材に全てつぎ込んだせいである。彼は人生には己の色を見つけ出す探究心も必要だが、白紙のキャンパスを提供してくれる援助者も必要である事を告げている。

It is often said that Vincent van Gogh imitated Jean-Francois Millet, but how they use colors were extremely different from one another. To become a good painter surely required a talent, but possessing a variety of painting tools was also an essential factor, at the same time. Impressionists located in Paris gave their major influence by using rich color hues of dots and lines, but those rich colors were quite expensive at that time. One of the reason why Vincent van Gogh had to spend his days without enough money was because he poured most of the money which his art dealer and also a younger brother, Theo, sent him as a financial assistance, into painting tools rather than his own livelihood. His behavior indicates that you need someone to provide blank canvas, as well as your enthusiasm and inquisitive mind to find your unique colors in your life.
