Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) believed that drawing was “the root of
everything.â A self-taught artist, he succeeded, between 1881 and
1890, in developing an inimitable graphic style. This book traces the
artistâs successive triumphs as a draftsman, first in the Netherlands
and later in France, highlighting the diversity of his technical
invention and the striking continuity of his vision. Given the pivotal
role drawings played in Van Goghâs artistic conception and the rich
dialectic they enjoyed with his oil paintings, a small selection of
related canvases by the artist is also featured.
This beautiful
book presents approximately 120 works in charcoal, ink, graphite,
watercolor, and diluted oils. The authors explore enduring questions
that surround Van Goghâs drawings, including their manufacture,
artistic precedents, and contribution to Modernism. In addition, the
text discusses the significance of the artistâs drawing practice to
his development as a painter. The essays and entries feature the most
current research on Van Goghâs drawings and provide fresh
interpretations of the motivating influences that shaped the artistâs
contributions to the history of drawing.

Hello! Thanks a lot for this blog and all of your fascinating sharing. However, I'm experiencing since a few days problems with your links and ulozto.net : their pages just won't open. I've checked on my side, tried to change settings, but still, it doesn't work. It never happened to me before (in years); so, please, did anyone else tell you the same, or is it just me? Thanks again, and a very good evening to you.
