内容説明
Official publication to accompany the important exhibition Vincent's Choice, Van Gogh's 'mus e imaginaire' at the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam marking the 150th anniversary of the artist's birth. The exhibition runs from 14th February to 15th June 2003. Thanks to van Gogh's correspondence, it has been possible to identify the works he knew and admired. The exhibition will assemble as many as possible of these - for the most part masterpieces of art history - constituting, as it were, Vincent's mus e imaginaire. His own paintings will reveal the artist in dialogue with those that he admired. The presence of great masters such as Rembrandt and Rubens, Constable, Corot and Courbet, Delacroix, Gauguin and Monet is in itself a powerful homage to Vincent's genius. The exhibition and the accompanying book will establish a visual contrast - or rather dialogue - between the work of van Gogh and the paintings which acted as his inspiration.
