[SergeiSK]

Biography of Van Gogh, it seems, needs to be adjusted - the German critics found someone had cut off the ear of Vincent Van Gogh.
Longer than a century believed that the artist himself cut off his lobe in a fit of madness. But after ten years of investigation, scientists found that the operation had his closest friend, the artist Paul Gauguin.
Two creative personalities have squabbled in the town of Arles 23rd December 1888. As a result, an excellent swordsman wounded Gauguin, Van Gogh's ear. Gun crime - rapier - he drowned in the river, pass on "Vesti". A legend arose because Van Gogh is believed to scientists, did not testify against his friend.
