Vincent: A Graphic Biography: A Graphic Biography
English
By (author): Simon Elliott
'I know for sure that I have an instinct for colour, and painting is in the very marrow of my bones'
The life of Van Gogh has gone down in legend as the archetypal artists existence. He was irascible and short-tempered, hugely passionate and emotional, absurdly talented and, for most of his lifetime, notoriously misunderstood and under-appreciated. And yet today, we see him as one of the most inventive, influential and admired painters of the entire Western canon, if not a genius.
Taking us through his short but explosive life, this graphic novel paints a vivid picture of Van Goghs unusual youth, his famous early failures, his discovery of a new style of painting, his tragic suicide, and the meteoric artistic legacy that followed.
For those looking for an introduction to this incredible artist, or searching for a fresh take on his story this is Vincent Van Goghs life as youve never seen it before. See more
