Walking With Vincent and Theo,
By
This review is from: Vincent and Theo Van Gogh: A Dual Biography (Hardcover)
I must say, I found this book totally by accident at the Strand in NYC and it was so big, I had to have it shipped home. I am so grateful to the gods who led me to this masterpiece of a book. I had read other biographies on Vincent van Gogh, but Jan Hulsker is where every person interested in Vincent's art, life and his brother should begin. I felt like I was walking with Vincent and Theo through every day of their lives, understanding all the joys and pain, the disappointments and elation. Dr. Hulsker is THE authority on all things van Gogh and for every question you've ever had or happening you've wondered about, he has the answer... here in this thorough and easy-to-read book. He corrects us on every myth and misconception and breaks us of old habits we've all probably developed when thinking of van Gogh. Most important of all: Dr. Hulsker understood that Vincent and Theo were one person - without Theo there was no Vincent and without Vincent there was no Theo. I'd recommend following this book with the letters of Theo and Jo van Gogh-Bonger.

The Best,
By Rux Williamson (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vincent and Theo Van Gogh: A Dual Biography (Hardcover)
This is probably the best biography of both Theo and Vincent Van Gogh ever written! It is very informative and has been extremely useful in my report on Van Gogh: The Artist. I'd recommend it to anyone needing extensive information on Vincent Van Gogh
