Van Gogh

Living in poverty for most of his life and so driven by demons that he cut off part of one of his ears, Vincent Van Gogh was the incarnation of the mad, misunderstood artist. His revolutionary, rich palettes and thick brushstrokes reflect the intensity of his life. This lively study follows the tortured genius's career from his early, gloomy work through his vibrant Parisian period and the powerful paintings of the last years before his premature death at age 37.Charles, Victoria is the author of 'Van Gogh ', published 2007 under ISBN 9789707184244 and ISBN 9707184248.
