VINCENT A COMPLETE PORTRAIT 1 by Bernard. Denvir
In little more than seven years Van Gogh produced a series of paintings that later made him one of the most famous artists in history. His turbulent personal life has become one of the folk legends of modern times, inspiring plays, films, documentaries, songs and novels. What drove Van Gogh to produce his incredible masterpieces? What led to his sad, solitary suicide at the age of 37? In this complete collection of Van Gogh's self-portraits, the artist speaks for himself through his letters and diaries and through his own paintings. More than 60 images have been gathered from galleries and private collections around the world, to produce this book.
