A really nice illustrated biography of Vincent Van Gogh.
His life is told from the point of view of his sister in law, Jo, who was Theo’s wife. It is told with kindness and also admiration for Van Gogh’s talent, in spite of all the hardships this created for Theo and his family.
The book illustrates well the commitment Jo had to make Vincent known and to develop the international recognition for his art.
It is well written and well illustrated, with colours reminiscent of Vincent and some of his own pictures.
A really good book to discover Vincent Van Gogh and understand how his art acquired the fame it has today.
You can learn more from the author in this interview.
