Synopsis

Vincent van Gogh found tranquility and stimulation in the landscape about him, and in his paintings of fields and meadows he sought to represent eternal truths about humanity and nature. The challenges of depicting fields provide keys to understanding the development of Van Gogh's unique creative process. This book was published to accompany the Toledo showing of the exhibition "Van Gogh: Fields", which brought together selections of the artist's landscapes from each phase of his short, intense career--his initial activity in The Netherlands in the early 1880s; his two years in Paris, and his stays in Arles, Saint-Remy, and Auvers-sur-Oise from February 1888 until his death in July 1890.
