A novice liked it
I spotted this book and, having been impressed by the Van Gogh exhibit at the National Gallery last year, decided to check it out. (That being said, I know very little about art and seldom read about it, so this review should be taken in that light.) Van Gogh was an ...

A joy to hold and behold
Illumination has fascinated me since I was a boy. This is the best book I have seen of illuminations. The scope includes books in Greek, Latin, Old Church Slavonic, Persian, and Mayan. The printing is superb. Detailed descriptions tell who did the work, who patronized ...

Van Gogh: The Complete Paintings (Klotz)
Ingo F Walther, Rainer Metzger

Taschen, 2006

A Must Have for all Van Gogh Fans out there!
First off, I must point out that I did not read the English version of this, but the French one; since it's a translation, it should basically be the same. Taschen has the nice habit of making great books for comparatively very cheap prices; and that is once again ...

Art Repros Worth Hanging
The Taschen Posterbooks are of excellent quality. The six Van Gogh's given us here, for a very low price, are a nicely representative group. Primarily the most impressive factor is the accuracy with which the colors are reproduced. Having seen many in person, I am ...
