Studio of the South: Van Gogh in Provence

for anyone visiting Arles. Very imforative!

Lots of detail regarding Van Gogh's most productive years. Some reproductions of work I had not seen before. Quality production values.

Since student days I have always loved Van Gogh's work and felt sorrow that he had such a turbulent life. I enjoyed reading about his life in Arles though sorrowed that such passion for his work brought him such pain. Yet again I was full of admiration for his brother who always supported him

Beautiful book with great pics & good commenrary by a known Van Gogh scholar.

I felt I was accompanying Vincent during his stay in Arles! There is so much relevant detail of the places and people. I would like to go there with this book! A dramatic tragedy which produced so much beauty. Very good images.
