For all his troubles
Hi teachers,
For all his troubles, van Gogh possessed a powerful intellect and self awareness that he revealed as much in his writing as in his art.
1. Is "for all his troubles" an fixed expression?
2. Does it mean "Despite his like hardship and the struggles with mental illness or other pains inflicted on him or so on, van Gogh possessed......."?
Thank you.
