Van Gogh's van Goghs : masterpieces from the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam by Richard Kendall ( Book )
4 editions published in 1998 in English and held by 1,471 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Van Gogh's Van Goghs presents seventy paintings from the extraordinary collection of the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, home to the single greatest assemblage of the artist's paintings, drawings, and letters. The collection is based on works acquired directly from the artist by his brother Theo, an art dealer and the source of Vincent's financial and emotional support. All periods of Vincent van Gogh's brief but intensely productive career are represented: his earliest paintings in The Netherlands; his responses to French Impressionism in 1886; the images he painted while in hospitals in Arles and Saint-Remy in southern France; and his last, feverishly creative works in Auvers-sur-Oise. Van Gogh's Van Goghs represents a unique opportunity to sample the largest and most varied Van Gogh collection in the world. It accompanies a major exhibition organized by the National Gallery of Art, Washington, and the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, in collaboration with the Los Angeles County Museum of Art."--Jacket

A real Van Gogh how the art world struggles with truth by Henk Tromp ( )
1 edition published in 2010 in English and held by 1,154 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
De kunstwereld is tot op heden bezig de echte van de valse Van Goghs te onderscheiden. In 1928 ontdekte de expert J.B. de la Faille tot zijn schrik dat zijn Van Gogh-catalogus tientallen valse werken bevatte. Hij wilde ze uit de catalogus verwijderen, maar stuitte daarbij op verzet van onder anderen handelaren, verzamelaars en critici. Het zou het begin vormen van een heftige belangenstrijd in de kunstwereld. Henk Tromp toont de minder aangename kanten van deze wereld aan de hand van speciale archieven van organisaties en particulieren. Hij laat zien hoe bewondering voor Van Goghs werken en liefde voor de waarheid het soms afleggen tegen hebzucht, vrees voor gezichtsverlies, ideologische verblinding en politieke belangen

Incarnation du mythe de l'artiste maudit, Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) est devenu une référence de l'art contemporain.

Vincent van Gogh réalisa plus de 2000 œuvres mais n'en vendra qu'une seule tout au long de sa vie. Peintre autodidacte, sa peinture est reconnue pour sa beauté à la fois sensible et âpre.
