This essay should be personal to you, but write something soulful about Da Vinci or Van Gogh

Explanation:

Vincent Van Gogh, while he was one of the most influential figures to western art, he was mentally ill. When he first transferred to London, he became depressed, and turned his belief to religion. In 1881 he took painting up once more after having bolstered ill health. He suffered from psychotic episodes and was aware he may have been mentally ill. After his depression advanced, he shot himself in the chest in 1890.

Leonardo Da Vinci was like a bifurcate book, he was fascinated with anatomy and hired grave robbers to steal the bodies of the recently deceased in order to study the muscles and limbs. He was a prodigious artist and far ahead of his time, obsessed with human flight, he made many sketches of his perception, after proving human flight by wing would not be possible. In order to keep these miscreant deeds secret, he wrote all his notes down backwards in Latin, so that no one may find out. There is also a thought he was more than likely homosexual. His death was exogenous.
