BY

STEVEN NAIFEH AND GREGORY WHITE SMITH

The ultimate biography of Vincent Van Gogh has been published in French . Output there 2 years in the United States, its publication was highly awaited by all fans of the painter. The two authors , Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith , received the Pulitzer Prize for this work unusual over 1200 pages , the result of 10 years of research . The book was hailed by the curator of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam as "the definitive biography on the subject ."

The title is simple " Van Gogh " , as was the painter , since it often signed his paintings "Vincent" .

But the most interesting in this book is that it debunks many bond idea received on the Dutch painter , here are a few: Van Gogh was not crazy and especially turn of events, he would not commit suicide but was killed by two children. This last assumption is quite credible because remember, the revolver with which the painter is supposed to have committed suicide was never found.

If like me you 're a fan of Van Gogh run buy it, you will not be disappointed . Happy reading and Merry Christmas to all ! !
