Happy birthday, Vincent van Gogh! Here are 10 facts about the prolific artist, born on this day in 1853: t.ted.com/O9iiiqw

How many versions of one person are there? 🤔 For Vincent van Gogh, the answer was 36. The artist, who was born on this day in 1853, painted 36 self-portraits—not out of vanity, but determination to hone his skills as a figure painter with nothing but his face and a mirror. In "Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat", we see a lighter, almost hopeful version of Van Gogh, brought to life through vibrant color and energetic brushstrokes. Earlier works reflected a much darker palette and focused on everyday life. Everything changed in 1886 when he moved to Paris and witnessed Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist works by artists like Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. From that point on, he began lightening his palette, incorporating bold colors, and using quick brushstrokes. So when you think of Van Gogh, which version are you seeing? ——— 🖼️ Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, Zundert 1853–1890 Auvers-sur-Oise), "Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat (obverse: The Potato Peeler)," 1887. Oil on canvas. On view in gallery 825.

“A scientist in his laboratory is not a mere technician: he is also a child confronting natural phenomena that impress him as though they were fairy tales.” — Marie Curie

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV triumphs over Donald Trump as the Catholic Church sees a MASSIVE surge in converts as his anti-MAGA message spreads like wildfire around the world. It turns out that love and compassion are popular... According to a new report in The New York Times, people are joining the Church in "surprising numbers." They discovered that the Archdiocese of Detroit will welcome 1,428 new Catholics this Easter Vigil — the annual night before Easter on which coverts enter the church — marking its highest numbers in 21 years. The Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston will see its highest number in 15 years while the Diocese of Des Moines is experiencing a 51% jump from last year, an increase from 265 people to 400. “Of course we think the Holy Spirit is [behind this]. But we are kind of stymied," said Cardinal Robert McElroy of Washington. His diocese will receive 1,755 new converts, up from 1,566 last year which had been a 15-year record. “‘What is your number? What is your number?’” McElroy said a group of bishops were asking each other at a recent conference. The Times checked conversion data at two dozen dioceses including massive ones like Los Angeles and Phoenix as well as substantially smaller ones like Allentown, Pennsylvania. In each location, they discovered a "significant jump." “In our age of uncertainty, and in our age of great anxiety, is a thirst and hunger for God and stability that faith brings to people’s lives,” said Archbishop Mitchell Thomas Rozanski of St. Louis. His diocese is seeing record high numbers since 2016. “I think technology has isolated us from one other. I think that Covid just really magnified that isolation,” he added. “We are realizing many of the ills of our society, particularly anxiety and depression, come about from that isolation.” But you cannot rule out the role of the papacy in this trend. And while it certainly helps that Leo is the first American pope, more importantly his message of kindness towards migrants and opposition to war has gone out to a world in desperate need of hope. He has labeled Trump's Iran War a “scandal to the whole human family” and called for a total ban on aerial bombardments. That opposition to the relentless cruelty of the Republican Party under its current cult leader has led to a massive backlash against Leo from the MAGA base, who now regularly smear him as a "communist" and "demonic." Yet he is undeterred in his message. At a time when the so-called "Christians" that make up Trump's Evangelical base are salivating for death — and even calling for a reinstatement of biblical slavery in some cases — Leo is echoing the simple, true message of Christ: Love thy neighbor. Please ❤️ and share if you're a fan of Pope Leo!
