循着文森特·梵高的足迹，从荷兰津德尔特的出生地到法国奥维尔的最后时光，这本精美的艺术游记通过250余幅黑白与全彩图像，揭示这位世界级艺术巨匠最负盛名画作背后隐藏的灵感源泉。

 

1990年，两位热爱艺术的摄影师达尼洛·德马科与马里奥·唐德罗怀着对梵高艺术的深情与学识，开启了一场跨越欧洲的朝圣之旅。他们沿着梵高当年的路线，乘火车或徒步穿梭于荷兰、英国、比利时与法国，试图以梵高的视角重览一个世纪前的风景。更与艺术史学者格洛里亚·福西合作，借助梵高的私人信件与历史文献，深入解读这位天才的内心世界。

 

本书生动再现了梵高留有详实记载的旅程，汇集激发其创作灵感的风景、建筑、肖像与文化元素。作者将历史影像与当代照片同梵高的画作并置，不仅展现时光流转，更透过笔触逐层揭示艺术家独特的视觉语言。从艺术家诞生的荷兰到逝世的法国，三十七年人生所经之地皆得探索，这些地点也因他的艺术化作永恒的地标。

 

《寻找梵高》聚焦激发艺术天才创作灵感的场所与物件，为其浩繁的作品与创作过程提供新颖解读。通过追寻艺术家的心灵轨迹，作者以点彩画般细腻的笔触，勾勒出这位非凡生命体的精神肖像，这个值得世代传颂的故事必将永续流传。

 

Follow in the footsteps of Vincent Van Gogh, from his birthplace in Zundert, Netherlands, to his last days in Auvers-sur-Oise, France, and explore the hidden inspirations behind the world-renowned artist’s most famous paintings in this beautiful art book and travelogue, illustrated with more than 250 black-and-white and full-color images throughout.

 

In 1990, two photographers and art enthusiasts, Danilo De Marco and Mario Dondero, set out to explore the details of Vincent Van Gogh’s life, retracing his journey across Europe by foot and by train. Armed with the love and knowledge of Van Gogh’s work, they traveled from the Netherlands to England, Belgium, and France to take in the sights as Van Gogh might have seen them a century earlier. They also turned to art historian Gloria Fossi to better understand, experience, and contextualize Van Gogh’s brilliant mind, drawing insights from his personal letters and other historical documents.

 

Van Gogh’s well-documented travels come alive in this gorgeous book which brings together the landscapes, architecture, portraits, and cultural references that inspired his art. The authors juxtapose vintage and contemporary photographs with Van Gogh’s renditions, demonstrating not only the passage of time, but Van Gogh’s unique artistic vision, brilliantly revealed brushstroke by brushstroke. From the Netherlands, where the artist was born, to his last days in France, no place he visited in his 37 years is left unexplored, and all have become timeless landmarks through his art.

 

In Search of Van Gogh brings into focus the places and objects that inspired and fueled Van Gogh’s artistic genius and offers fresh insights into his prolific work and process. In searching for the artist’s mind and soul, the authors create a pointillistic portrait of a human being whose life was remarkable, and whose story must be shared for generations to come.
