Vincent

This was GREAT. You should read it. I loved the illustration - it was really cute and simple and clean and nice. I loved that a lot of the drawings looked like famous Van Gogh painting - it was like an easter egg hunt trying to find all of the references to his actual art. I thought it was really we Leggi tutto

Me da igual sonar a un cliché andante, pero Vincent van Gogh es mi pintor favorito. Desde muy pequeña he sentido una fascinación sin igual por su obra y, por eso y porque soy friki, vi muchísimas clases de Historia del Arte tanto en el colegio como en la universidad.

Maybe it’s partly because I know so little about him, but Vincent Van Gogh has always seemed a bit distant and cold - a genius but an isolated and seemingly unknowable one.

Ο Van Gogh είναι πολύ αγαπημένος μου ζωγράφος και πάντα διαβάζω με μεγάλο ενδιαφέρον πράγματα σχετικά με τη ζω Leggi tutto

Hoy tuve una clase sobre impresionismo, y al pasar al postimpresionismo no faltó Vincent van Gogh. Una de mis compañeras llevó libros, entre ellos "Vincent", de Barbara Stok. De mil amores me prestó esta hermosa novela gráfica sobre la vida del pintor, particularmente desde su llegada a Arlés en ade Leggi tutto

Van Gogh is my favorite painter and i am always so touched by his life story, his art, his illness that they almost always bring tears to my eyes. Really enjoyed this but for a graphic novel that is about an artist i am, ironically, not very impressed with the art. (Also, completely unrelated but the Leggi tutto
