"It is so nice to be able to follow van Gogh's development by seeing his pictures, which are linked to extracts from his letters, in order. This method seems to give the artist more depth and makes you study his pictures even more closely. The pictures are large and clear, as is the text. A really lovely book to have and to study."

"You will never regret buying this book. A warm human story. Beautiful"
"Beautiful colored plates and lots of pictures. It was well set out. There are many Van Gogh books out there but this one includes personal letters which takes you through his work. Haven't been able to study it too closely as it's a birthday present but am sure it will be well received. Good size and price."

"I bought it as a present for my boyfriend, who's a great admirer of Van Gogh. He absolutely adored it! I read in a review that the book was small, but I'd say that's not true, and the size is perfect for an art book. The paintings are displayed in a good quality, and the passages of his letters beautifully introduced."
