Van Gogh is a vivid portrait of the great Impressionist painter that traces his life from the Netherlands, where he was born into a family of art dealers, through his years in England, the Hague, and Paris, to his final home in Arles, where he discovered the luminous style of his late paintings before his suicide at the age of thirty-seven.

The lives of many famous artists have been shrouded in mystery and conjecture, but none have been more controversial than the life of Vincent van Gogh. Remembered for his swirling brushstrokes and burning colors, Vincent van Gogh is today one of the best-known painters. Though his career as a painter spanned less than ten years, he produced a body of work that remains one of the most enduring in all of modern art. In his lifetime, however, he received little recognition. Today his paintings sell for countless millions, yet during his lifetime, van Gogh managed to sell just one painting.

The compelling story of how Vincent van Gogh developed his audacious, iconic style by immersing himself in the work of others, featuring paintings by Van Gogh as well as the artists who inspired him—from the New York Times bestselling co-author of Van Gogh: The Life Vincent van Gogh’s...

In Breaking van Gogh, James Grundvig investigates the history and authenticity of van Gogh's iconic Wheat Field with Cypresses. Relying on a vast array of techniques from the study of the painter's biography and personal correspondence to the examination of the painting's style and technical characteristics, Grundvig proves that the "most expensive purchase" housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is a fake.

Carol Berry and her husband met and befriended Henri Nouwen when she sat in his course on compassion at Yale Divinity School in the 1970s. At the request of Henri Nouwen's literary estate, she has written this book, which includes unpublished material recorded from Nouwen's lectures. As an art educator, Berry is uniquely situated to develop Nouwen's work on Vincent van Gogh and to add her own research. She fills in background on the much misunderstood spiritual context of van Gogh's work, and reinterprets van Gogh's art in light of Nouwen's lectures.

Om de spannende verhalen achter de roof van tientallen Van Goghs te achterhalen duikt journalist Lex Boon in internationale archieven, wint hij informatie in bij musea en spreekt hij met de beroemde kunstdetective Arthur Brand en met voormalig kunstdieven. Als museum Singer Laren slachtoffer wordt van een kunstroof, staat journalist Lex Boon de volgende middag te luisteren naar een ontredderde museumdirecteur. In een poging om hem enigszins gerust te stellen, probeert Boon uit te zoeken hoe groot de kans is dat Van Goghs Lentetuin terugkeert en hoelang dat naar verwachting zal duren.

Il podcast in 5 puntate di Marco Goldin, uno tra i maggiori studiosi dell’opera di Van Gogh, ripercorre le ultime settimane della vita dell’artista olandese. Dal momento in cui il pittore, il 15 maggio 1890, lascia la casa di cura per malattie mentali a Saint-Rémy, in Provenza, passa tre giorni a Parigi a casa del fratello Theo e arriva infine a Auvers-sur-Oise, un villaggio a nord di Parigi. È in questo luogo che Van Gogh dipingerà gli ultimi capolavori, fino alla sua morte. Naturalmente le lettere restano un elemento cardine per poter raccontare quel tempo conclusivo.

Fa parte della cospicua produzione di autoritratti ai quali l'artista affida un tentativo di dialogo che non può, né riesce, a intraprendere con nessun altro se non con se stesso, uno strenuo tentativo di fuoriuscire dalla solitudine esistenziale che pare essere senza scampo. Egli cerca nella figura riflessa attraverso lo specchio le ragioni più profonde della propria sofferenza, fino a imprimerle indelebilmente sulla tela.
