VAN GOGH.LETTERS FROM PROV. Summary

VAN GOGH.LETTERS FROM PROV. by Vincent van Gogh

Van Gogh spent the last two years of his life in Provence, where he painted his greatest pictures, and this book tells the artist's own story of his most creative period. It reproduces extensive extracts from his correspondence and is illustrated with his paintings, drawings and facsimile letters. Van Gogh's letters are a testimony to his struggle to survive and work. Here, the combination of letters and illustrations, concentrating on the period when he painted his greatest works, aims to provide an insight into his daily life in Arles and St-Remy, his spiritual torment and the process of artistic creation itself. The author is an Observer journalist specializing in the arts, and has published four previous books, including Young Vincent: The Story of Van Gogh's Years in England.
