This richly illustrated and expert study follows the artist from the
early gloom-laden paintings in which he captured the misery of peasants
and workers in his homeland, through his bright and colourful Parisian
period, to the work of his final years, spent under a southern sun in
Arles. Here, at last, he found the light that produced the unmistakable
Van Gogh style. At Arles, Saint-Rémy and Auvers-sur-Oise, in the
feverish burst of creative energy that marked his last two-and-a-half
years, he produced the 465 paintings on which his immortality rests.
Van Gogh craved recognition during his lifetime but was denied it until
after his self-inflicted death. Today he is universally seen as one of
the great forerunners of painting of the 20th century, and one of the
tragic masters of art.
