Van Gogh (Great Masters)

116 Photographs - Van Gogh's life and work are so intertwined that it is hardly possible to see his pictures without reading in them the story of his life: a life which has been described so many times and that is by now the stuff of the legend. Van Gogh is the incarnation of the suffering, misunderstood martyr of modern art, the emblem of the artist as an outsider. This great artist lived at various places throughout his life and the book presents them in different topics, some of them are: Holland, England and Belgium: 1853-1886 Paris: 1886-1888 Arles: 1888-1889 Saint-Remy: 1889-1890 This book on one of the great masters who finally committed suicide, is a worthwhile read for fans as well as lovers of modern art.
