Vincent Van Gogh, 1853-1890: Vision and Reality

1999Ingo F. Walther

4.9/5

The story and works of beautiful human being who gave the world and his works of art so much of himself that there was nothing left for himself. His agony in living is clearly expressed in his paintings as well as his joy in the colours and the nature he tried to capture. The book is a tiny glimpse into a journey of madness, love, betrayal and genius. To see the world through Vincent's eyes is truely a wonderous experience but scary and overwhelming also. Some photos are included of his work over the years including Sunflowers and of course The starry night but some lesser known to me at least like Cafe terrace at night: Arles and Monmartre: Paris which is to me beautiful, simplistic and vibrant. I love this man who gave so much of himself to his art..... "I put my heart and soul into my work and have lost half my mind in the process" Vincent Van Gogh
