Van Gogh: New Findings shows how much we still have to learn about Van Gogh and his art, with ten articles on wide-ranging subjects. One offers a new interpretation of Van Gogh's painting Tree roots (1890), arguing that this was the artist's final work, and not the better-known painting Wheatfield with crows. The previously unknown Van Gogh letter dates from 26 October 1872, when he worked for an art dealer, and is the second earliest known letter written by Vincent. It was discovered in an archive in the province of North Brabant. Another article shows that Van Gogh and his brother lived in a different apartment at Rue Lepic 54 in Paris than was previously believed.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
