ernest v. montford: This is a good review of Van Gogh’s work. I got it for my thirteen year old grandson. I wanted him to have a picture book with text. It offers a good narrative of Vincent’s life & work. I recommend as a good review at a fair price.

Sumeyra AkdoğanSumeyra Akdoğan: The media could not be loaded. As I assumed that it won’t be a good choice for my coffee table ! And I never expected that the pages are coated papers ! As I don’t see quite amount of comment related to book , I actually hesitate to buy however I decided to buy to see . I will give detailed information about the book for your reference:
Firstly the hardcover is quite chic and there was no dent or damage.
Secondly the pages are coated which adds value to book and I also like the quality of pictures on the contrary of some reviews
Last but not least , it is very fashionable as well as good choice for having good time reading book in your free time. Very informative .
I would definitely recommend for those who have any hesitation about ordering for this book.
I will complete the whole series over time
Thank you 🙏🏻

There are a lot of paintings from which to pick a favorite, as Van Gogh has some 200 extant works.

This close-up makes you feel like you can see him make the bold brush-strokes. There are also 13 supporting photos , such as the studio portrait of Vincent when he was 13 years old.
The book presents Van Gogh and his paintings in chronological order and covers what is happening in his life as well as discussing the paintings themselves. I knocked half a star off in my rating due to a few lapses into what I call "art-speak". From Chapter 2, "Apprenticeship Years in Paris", a paragraph on the painting "Still Life with Mackerels, Lemons and Tomatoes":
