Description

This richly illustrated, concise volume provides an excellent introduction to the life and work of Vincent van Gogh. The carefully chosen color plates reflect the full range of van Gogh's extraordinary genius. His mature works, with their vigorous brushstroke and uniquely forceful use of color, are instantly recognizable. Other, less familiar, images show the artist drawing on contemporary artistic styles, from the nostalgic landscapes of the Hague School to pointillism and Japanese show more woodblock prints. [...] With a brief biographical discussion of his artistic development and his turbulent life, this book will provide a visual feast for all art lovers. show less
