A new selection of post-impressionist painter Vincent Van Gough's letters, The Letters of Vincent van Gogh put a human face on one of the most haunting figures in modern Western culture. In this Penguin Classics edition, the letters are selected and edited by Ronald de Leeuw, and translated by Arnold Pomerans in Penguin Classics.
Few artists' letters are as self-revelatory as Vincent van Gogh's, and this selection, spanning his artistic career, sheds light on every facet of the life and work of this complex and tortured man. Engaging candidly and movingly with his religious struggles, his ill-fated search for love, his attacks of mental illness and his relation with his brother Theo, the letters contradict the popular myth of van Gogh as an anti-social madman and a martyr to art, showing instead a man of great emotional and spiritual depths. Above all, they stand as an intense personal narrative of artistic development and a unique account of the process of creation.
The letters are linked by explanatory biographical passages, revealing van Gogh's inner journey as well as the outer facts of his life. This edition also includes the drawings that originally illustrated the letters.
Review
"If ever there was any doubt that Van Gogh's letters belong beside those great classics of artistic self-revelation, Cellini's autobiography and Delacroix's journal, this excellent edition dispels it."
—The Times (London)
文森特·梵高(Vincent van Gogh,1853-1890),印象画派巨匠。1853年3月30日,生于荷兰布拉邦特。一生屡遭挫折,备尝艰辛。1890年7月29日,在法国美丽的瓦兹结束了年轻的生命,年仅37岁。
Vincent Willem van Gogh(1853-1890) was born in Holland. He became an assistant with an international firm of art-dealers and in 1881 he went to Brussels to study art. After an unsuccessful love affair with his cousin he returned to Holland and in 1885 he painted his first masterpiece, The Potato Eaters, a haunting scene of domestic poverty. In 1888 he left Paris for the Provençal landscape at Arles, the subject of many of his best works, including "Sunflowers" and "The Chair and the Pipe." It was here Van Gogh cut off his ear, in remorse for threatening Gauguin with a razor during a quarrel, and he was placed in an asylum for a year. On July 7, 1890 Van Gogh shot himself at the scene of his last painting, the foreboding "Cornfields with Flight of Birds," and he died two days later.

Vincent Willem van Gogh was born on 30 March 1853 in GrootZundert, a village in Brabant on the Belgian border, the oldest son of Theodorus van Gogh and his amiable wife, Anna Cornelia Carbentus (their first child, also named Vincent, had been stillborn exactly one year earlier). He was named Vincent Willem after his two grandfathers. A daughter, Anna, followed in and in 1857 a second son, Theo, with reddish hair and blue eyes lust like Vincent, but of slighter build. The family was further enlarged by two daughters, Lies and Willemien, and a late arrival, a son called Cor.
Vincent’sfather was a Protestant clergyman in the predominantly Catholic southern Netherlands. Little is known of the young Vincent other than that he was a rather trying, sometimes troublesome boy — probably because his mother tended to spoil her children — and that he loved animals and flowers. Vincent and Theo kept each other company a good deal and their childhood against the background of ‘the wheat fields, the heath and the pine forests, in that peculiarly intense atmosphere of a village parsonage’ was later described by Johanna van GoghBonger as a poetic age, a Brabant idyll. Association with the somewhat unruly peasant lads of the neighbourhood did little to detract from this. For a short time Vincent attended the village school in Zundert, but when he was eleven he was sent to a boarding school in Zevenbergen for two years, followed by a year and a half at the Hogere Burgerschool in Tilburg. In late July 1869, he became the youngest employee of the Hague branch of Goupil & Cie, a well-known firm of art dealers, also established in London, Paris, New York and Brussels. In addition to paintings and drawings, the firm specialized in the sale of reproductions. That the son of a Brabant clergyman should have chosen a career in the international art trade is not as strange as it might at first seem; no fewer than three of his father’s brothers — ‘C. M.’, Cent and Hem — held prominent positions in that field. It seems the recommendation of his Uncle Vincent, his father’s favourite brother, who lived in nearby Prinsenhage, was decisive in Vincent’s choice of profession.
