Gilbert's Living with Art, 6/e

Introduction
Living with Art

Art and Artists


Artists: Van Gogh

Van Gogh's introspective personality and his tumultuous emotional universe are easily seen in his works. Correspondence to his family during his self-imposed internment at an asylum is just as insightful, helping shed light not just on the person, but on the nature of the artistic process itself. The sites below explore his life, writings and work.

These sites offer access to both the paintings and the writings that can help you get the big picture on Van Gogh.

Art People: Dorothy and Herbert Vogel

The love and dedication this couple have lavished upon the American and international art scenes prove one very important point: you don't have to be rich or from royal blood to be a patron of the arts. This couple has made an impact on the artists they have supported, as well as on the public, due to the recent purchase of their collection.
