First of our "Belle Epoque" Life Stories about extraordinary Artists - Vincent van Gogh
 
On display in the world's most prestigious galleries, van Gogh's paintings spark an immense passion that few artists could replicate. He became a universal brand, but behind this huge posthumous notoriety in the popular imagination, he incarnates the figure of the tortured artist.
 
A legend has been constructed around his life, his time in a psychiatric hospital, the incident during which he cut off his own ear, and his absence fuelled altercations. The madman genius, who suffered for his art and died prematurely, often mocked or feared by the society of "normal" people during his life, finally became one of the most famous and influential figures in art history.
 
In this book, we will cast light on the fascinating process of his slow maturation that made van Gogh the ultimate painter.
