Let's put it this way: Vincent Van Gogh didn't allow popular demand to
dictate what and how he should paint.  He sold one painting, but today
all his artwork is priceless.  Ironically, a lot of the quality of Van
Gogh's paintings is lost in the common prints that some are willing to
exhibit in their homes.  Fortunately, they do not detract from the
value of the originals.

Should Van Gogh have followed popular trends in art at the time?
