The Letters of a Post-ImpressionistBeing the Familiar Correspondence of Vincent Van Gogh

---

While the tragedy of his early death cemented his legacy as the romanticized ideal of a "tortured artist, " Vincent Van Gogh was more than his poverty, his mental illness and even his perceived genius. Compiled by his sister-in-law, Johanna van Gogh-Bonger, The Letters of a Post-Impressionist: Being the Familiar Correspondence of Vincent Van Gogh, is collection of personal letters that exists because of the endearing friendship between two brothers: Theo and Vincent Van Gogh. Consisting of hundreds of letters—both complete and fragmented—between Vincent, his brother, and occasionally, his friend and fellow painter, Émile Bernard, this initial volume of published letters provide a reflection of Vincent Van Gogh as both a literary and visual artist. Read as literature, these letters paint the portrait of an incredibly gifted writer with a unique sense of literary style—read as autobiography, they chronicle an artist's life and his ability to use his brush as an expression of himself. Detailing his views on his contemporaries, the Expressionist painting style, his art and inspirations— The Letters of a Post-Impressionist: Being the Familiar Correspondence of Vincent Van Gogh is a beautifully written epistolary biography that provides an intimate look into the mind of one of the most talented and celebrated artists in the world.
