ocr: AN sDuM EUN AUVERS-SUR-DISE An empty chair stands in the attic bedroom where van Gogh died of a self-inflicted bullet wound in July 1890. "Iris useless," he wrote in his last letter (right), which carried a sketch of a final painting. But already the art world recognized his genius, "Men like him do not die entirely," wrote G. Albert Aurier, one of the first to praise him. His work "will make his name live again and for cternity." 129
