About this title: Vincent van Gogh's story is one of the most ironic in art history. He lived an unhappy and difficult life during which his work received almost no appreciation - finally killing himself by a bullet to the chest, so great was his despair - and is now widely considered one of the most important painters of all time, his works fetching record prices of tens of millions of dollars at auction. This comprehensive study of Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) represents a rarity in art history: a detailed monograph on his life and art combined with a complete catalogue of his 871 paintings. This volume also ...

"Van Gogh's complete biography, paintings and letters to Theo, friends and critics. If when you see someone at the museum taking photos of the paintings of the artist using flash, you feel like cutting their throats open, this book its a must have."
"Not only a solid retrospective on Van Gogh's art, but an empathic study of him as a tortured soul doing his best to order the chaos of his experience of the world."
"I'd love to own all of Taschen's Basic Art books. I just picked up their Van Gogh book which has great prints of a lot of his work. I've read the first few chapters which explore Van Gogh's life and career as an artist. Very interesting read so far, but even better are all the great pages of artwork."
