A revelatory resituation of Van Gogh's familiar works in the
company of the surprising variety of nineteenth-century art and
literature he most revered Vincent van Gogh's (1853-1890)
idiosyncratic style grew out of a deep admiration for and
connection to the nineteenth-century art world. This fresh look at
Van Gogh's influences explores the artist's relationship to the
Barbizon School painters Jean-Francois Millet and Georges
Michel-Van Gogh's self-proclaimed mentors-as well as to Realists
like Jean-Francois Raffaelli and Leon Lhermitte. New scholarship
offers insights into Van Gogh's emulation of Adolphe Monticelli,
his absorption of the Hague School through Anton Mauve and Jozef
Israels, and his keen interest in the work of the Impressionists.
This copiously illustrated volume also discusses Van Gogh's
allegiance to the colorism of Eugene 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, Through Vincent's Eyes provides a fascinating deep
dive into the artist's sources of inspiration that reveals his
expansive interest in the artistic culture of his time. Published
