Personality

What personality type is Vincent van Gogh? Vincent van Gogh is an INFP personality type in MBTI, 4w5 - sx/sp - 459 in Enneagram, RLUEI in Big 5, IEI in Socionics.

Not an argument, just something to consider: Vincent struggled with feeling incompetent and useless to himself and to the people around him. As his sensitivities ricocheted from one thing to the other —when he was a clerk, then when he became a preacher, to when he started selling books (and other things) —this feeling only heightened. And with his art, his consolation was that someday, a 100 years later, some people would find it useful. A search for identity, while it was important to him and played a significant part in his story, wasn't really the main motivation for most of what he did.
