The narrative begins with Van Goghs drawings  which were the foundation of his early practice  and describes how he transitioned into painting by consulting instructional handbooks and copying images. Written by a team of international experts  the book follows his moves from the landscapes and peasant life of his native Holland to Antwerp  Paris  Provence  and finally the countryside north of Paris. In the brilliant light of southern France  he began painting portraits and landscapes while refining his characteristic style of rhythmic brushstrokes and expressive impasto in vivid colors. In addition to the main essay with its overview of Van Goghs shifting techniques and artistic concerns  the publication features a pair of essays highlighting two museums with exceptional collections of the artists work: the Van Gogh Museum  Amsterdam  and the Krller-Mller Museum  Otterlo. Beautifully reproduced images showcase approximately 50 outstanding pieces from these and other institutions  from rough drawings to vibrant late-career canvases.
