摘要
梵高一直声称自己在一次突发精神错乱中将自己的耳朵割了下来，但是一本新书称，他的耳朵实际上是由他的朋友、一位同行画家割下来的。艺术史学家汉斯·考夫曼说，“我们相信在阿尔勒城的‘黄房子’里，保罗·高更在一次与梵高的口角中将后者的耳朵割下”。1888年，高更当时正住在梵高租下房间的小楼中。虽然这两个天才经常合作，甚至有时画的是同一题材，
Van Gogh always claimed he＇d cut his own ear of-fin a fit of delirium, but a new book says it was actually severed by a friend and fellow painter. We believe Paul Gauguin cut it off during a quarrel, he （Hans Kaufmann, art historian） says, in the Yellow Hause atArles. In 1888, Gauguin was staying in the house where Van Gogh rented rooms. Although the two geniuses often collaborated, sometimes even painting the same subject, their fights were epic. Here explored in the movie, Lust for Life （Van Gogh threw a cup to Gauguin）.
