Drawings. Vincent Van Gogh: 1853/1890/1990Amidst the wealth of books commemorating van Gogh's centenary, none is more stunning than this beautifull set. The first deals with his paintings and the second with the drawings; together they are the official publication of the remarkable exhibitions held in the Netherlands earlier this year - shows which gave an unprecedented opportunity to view many rarely seen works. Few painters appeal to the imagination as much as Vincent van Gogh, and these two books demonstrate magnificently the powerfully individualistic qualities of his work as well as the coherent pattern of ideas and obsessions. |
