Vincent Van Gogh: A BiographyIn this remarkable book, one of the finest biographies of van Gogh, a noted author and critic paint an unusually vivid and moving portrait of the artist. Beginning wth van Gogh's birth in 1853 in Brabant, the author documents the relatively brief but intense and moving story of his life - his early passionate religious convictions, unrequited loves, empathy with nature, close relationship with his brother Theo, development of prodigioius artistic powers, relationships with Gauguin and other artists, bouts with insanity, and his suicide in 1890. |
