Van Gogh's brilliant colors and expressive brush strokes
come vibrantly to life in this sumptuous book that features
approximately fifty of his most important works in generous
accordion-fold pages. The large-format reproductions, printed
on heavy stock, are presented chronologically, allowing
for a close study of Van Gogh’s development as an artist. In
addition to his more well-known works, such as Irises, The
Starry Night, Sunflowers, The Bedroom, Almond Blossom and
Wheatfield with Crows, readers will also discover how he
experimented with landscape, still life and portraiture and
how his influences changed over his brief but prolific career to
embrace Impressionism, Neo-Classicism, and Pointillism, and
incorporated elements of Symbolism as well as the techniques
of Japanese woodcuts.
An accompanying booklet features thumbnails of each painting
along with captions that highlight key elements, as well as a
brief appraisal of his life and work. Both volumes are encased
in a sturdy slipcase. The set is a must-have for fans of Van Gogh
and an excellent resource for understanding why he remains one
of the world’s most beloved painters.
VALÉRIE METTAIS’ previous books include Klimt: The Essential Paintings Vand Van Gogh: The Essential Paintings, both published by Prestel.
