Few artists’ letters are as self-revelatory as Vincent van Gogh’s. From the humanistic inspiration behind The Potato Eaters to his long-time obsession with painting the vision that eventually became ‘The Starry Night’, the letters in this selection paint an intense personal narrative of his artistic development and creative process across the years. They reveal a man of great spiritual and emotional depths who – in his own words – did everything ‘for art and for life itself’.
