Summary |
"he many facets of Vincent van Gogh's life and art are explored in this unusual and beautiful tribute to the artist's world, words, and work. During his brief and troubled life, Vincent van Gogh completed more than 800 paintings, but sold only a single picture before he committed suicide in 1890. Now his paintings bring millions at auctions and are among the most recognizable images in art. Art historian Isabel Kuhl offers new insights into the life and artworks of the visionary artist in this multi-dimensional exploration, which uses superb reproductions, informative maps, and the artist's own words to immerse readers into the time and place in which van Gogh painted." -- Prestel |
