Between 1880 and 1890--the whole of his career in art--Vincent van Gogh created more than two thousand paintings and drawings. Only two of them were sold during his short lifetime; public recognition of his genius arrived only after Vincent—and his brother, constant supporter, and would-be art dealer, Theo—had died. With rippling, agitated brushstrokes and bold, sometimes startling colors, Van Gogh’s art reveals the competition between bliss and anguish that preoccupied him during his last decade of life. To see the mundane through his eyes is to see it for the first time: wheat field, vineyard, garden, cottage are imbued with wonder. Van Gogh is often portrayed as an impetuous, self-destructive misfit. That description is correct but incomplete. He was also a deeply thoughtful man whose shimmering images reveal an earthy but spiritual joy in his surroundings. Published with The Phillips Collection. Ten full-color blank notecards (5 each of 2 styles) with envelopes in a decorative folio. ISBN: 0-7649-3613-1. |
