Download Dear Theo: The Autobiography of Vincent van Gogh AudioBook Free
Every night, when the time of painting and pulling were over, Vincent van Gogh put pen to paper and poured out his heart through characters to his beloved brother, Theo, his confidant and partner. No thought was too small, no aspect of his art too insignificant, no occurring too trivial. It had been all scrupulously saved and shared. In these characters, Van Gogh shows himself as designer and man. A lot more than if he previously purposely designed to notify his life account, Van Gogh's characters lay down bare his deepest feelings, as well as his day-to-day concerns and his views of the world of fine art. Irving Rock has edited the characters of Vincent so as to sustain every line of beauty, significance, and importance. "It is my humble view that Vincent was as great a writer and philosopher," Rock says, "as he was a painter."
