Van Gogh's Ugliest Painting
Even a genius doesn't make a masterpiece every time they sit down to do something. Vincent Van Gogh described his painting "Night Cafe" as his ugliest in a letter to his brother, telling him that although he did what he set out to do, the result was less than what Van Gogh had hoped for. Despite his disappointment, "Night Cafe" is considered to be a masterpiece, and the Nerdwriter has a great take on why it's one of the painter's best.
