This fresh look at Van Gogh's influences explores the artist's relationship to the Barbizon School painters Jean-François Millet and Georges Michel--Van Gogh's self-proclaimed mentors--as well as to Realists like Jean-François Raffaëlli and Léon Lhermitte. New scholarship offers insights into Van Gogh's emulation of Adolphe Monticelli, his absorption of the Hague School through Anton Mauve and Jozef Israëls, and his keen interest in the work of the Impressionists. This copiously illustrated volume also discusses Van Gogh's allegiance to the colorism of Eugène Delacroix, as well as his alliance with the Realist literature of Charles Dickens and George Eliot. Although Van Gogh has often been portrayed as an insular and tortured savant, \u003ci\u003eThrough Vincent's Eyes\u003c\/i\u003e provides a fascinating deep dive into the artist's sources of inspiration that reveals his expansive interest in the artistic culture of his time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300251371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320","brand":"Eik Kahng","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41309859250357,"sku":"9780300251371","price":51.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_698bafdc-cc27-40de-8862-0186011b7893.jpg?v=1635832504","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/through-vincents-eyes-van-gogh-and-his-sources-9780300251371","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
