Why read it?
1 author picked Living with Vincent van Gogh as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Martin Bailey is an expert on all things Van Gogh, and any of his books could have been recommended.

To know the artist is to understand the numerous homes and landscapes that have shaped and influenced both him and his art. In an era when people rarely left the area where they were born, Van Gogh was both a traveller and unsettled.
This book made me truly consider what that might actually mean.
From Caroline's list on truly understanding the real Vincent Van Gogh.
