Review:
I got this book a few years ago when I went to the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam, which is one of my favorite museums I've been to, and I figured it was time to finally sit down and read it instead of just flipping through it every once in a while.
I really getting to read a bit more about the artist and the different periods he had in his career, as well as see all of these beautiful paintings again. I like how the book spreads out the evolution of his work and how every painting in here has a bit of information about it and what we know about the thoughts and process behind it.
It's not a super detailed book, but it works great as an introduction to Van Gogh and his work, and you get to see all of these lovely paintings which is always great.
