Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Vincent van Gogh died in 1890 without knowing he would become famous?

Yes. A reference biography states Van Gogh was unsuccessful during his lifetime and became famous only after his 1890 suicide, and a 1924 newspaper piece notes his name was almost unknown at his death. These sources support that he died in 1890 without knowing he would become famous.
