Description

Vincent, award winner Barbara Stok’s graphic biography of van Gogh, is “an emotional, informative, and inspirational biography for artists and art lovers everywhere. Fantastic” (Library Journal, Starred Review).

This graphic biography documents the brief and intense period of creativity Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) spent in Arles, Provence, in southern France. Here van Gogh dreams of setting up an artists’ studio—a haven where he and his friends can paint together. But attacks of mental illness leave the painter confused and disoriented.

When his friend and fellow artist Paul Gauguin refuses to reside permanently at the Yellow House, a distraught van Gogh cuts off part of his own ear. Throughout this period of intense emotion and hardship, Vincent’s brother, Theo, stands by him, offering constant and unconditional support. Writer and illustrator Barbara Stok breathes riveting new life into a fascinating episode of art history, creating a vivid portrait of one of the world’s most beloved and legendary artists.
“Stylistically, Stok is almost faultless . . . [Vincent] leaves us aware of a small breath of fresh air blown into the world of art history.” —Times Literary Supplement

“Stok does a brilliant, sympathetic job of picturing the artist, whether jagged with madness or sitting amid the wheat fields and sunflowers of Arles.” —Guardian
