> As a youngish man, he married a worn-out, alcoholic, middle-aged prostitute.

She was three years older than him at most and they were not married.

I stand corrected. However the drawings of her indicate a woman who is prematurely broken by life. Google 'Sorrow' by Van Gogh... that is her. Compare that to Van G's self portraits done at the same time.

Is this painting of a girl with her head on her arms and knees [1] your understanding of being "prematurely broken by life"?

A girl?

That looks like a painting of a geriatric.
