Download Van Gogh: A Power Seething: Icons AudioBook Free
A passionate profile of the tortured life and tragic loss of life of the greatest designer of the nineteenth century, by renowned critic and painter Julian Bell. Van Gogh is a brilliant portrait of the fantastic Impressionist painter that traces his life from holland, where he was born into a family of art retailers, through his years in Great britain, the Hague, and Paris, to his last home in Arles, where he uncovered the luminous design of his late paintings before his suicide at the age of thirty-seven. Van Gogh struggled to find his way as an designer: Well into his mid-twenties he had achieved virtually little or nothing except a few charcoal drawings of coal miners. Suffering from mental health problems and a mercurial temper, he was institutionalized several times toward the finish of his life. Julian Bell conveys this tragic tale with great compassion, depicting vehicle Gogh in all his anguished vigor, a genius for whom the greatest challenge was to remain alive until he had completed his most fully realized and impressive works.
