Vincent's Trees

Paintings & Drawings by Van Gogh

Ralph Skea

Description

This superbly illustrated book traces van Gogh's development as a painter of trees. From delicate drawings in pencil and ink and subtle, Pointillist-inspired paintings to stylized, boldly coloured depictions of single trees, groves and landscapes, the oils and sketches reproduced here are a testament to the artist's poetic sensibility and great talent in capturing nature. The text discusses van Gogh's early life in the Netherlands; his first tree studies in the Dutch landscape; his paintings of trees within townscapes; his particular fascination with orchards, which led to some of his best-known and most loved paintings; and the works he completed in rural Provence.
