PHAIDON CALSSICS VAN GOGH

The best available introduction to van Gogh''s work, sumptuously re-created to appeal to a new generation of book collectors and art lovers. A splendid presentation of the work of the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh, much loved for the rough beauty, emotional honesty and bold colour of his paintings. This richly sumptuous edition features van Gogh’s most celebrated works – from Starry Night to Sunflowers, from the landscapes and people of Arles to self-portraits, interiors and still lifes – as selected by Ludwig Goldscheider, co-founder of Phaidon Press, for the original 1936 edition. The classic essay on van Gogh’s life and work by Wilhelm Uhde is supplemented by a completely new introduction written by Louis van Tilborgh, and the tipped-on plates, luxurious papers and elegant design make this a true collector’s edition.
