Van Gogh
This book considers the influence of other artists' prints and drawings on Van Gogh's graphic oeuvre. The book juxtaposes a selection of Van Gogh's work - some forty drawings and prints - with a range of works that inspired him. These include prints from illustrated magazines and 19th-century prints, which he avidly collected and which strongly influenced his early work, as well as replicas of 17th-century prints, Japanese prints and other works which inspired his remarkable drawings with the reed pen in Provence. Van Gogh absorbed a multitude of influences, which combined to create drawings that are highly innovative, not only in style but often also in technique. The exhibition and this accompanying publication will pay close attention to those and other aspects of one of the most remarkable drawn oeuvres of the 19th century.
