To End All Confusion,
By A Customer
This review is from: Vincent Van Gogh: The Complete Paintings (Part I) (v. 1) (Hardcover)
Please understand, the 1997, hard cover, single volume edition, with ISBN #3-8228-8265-8 is a wonderful book with expert reproductions and a very well written biography. Because of the identical titles and publisher, reviews for the 1993 and 1997 editions are posted under both books, thus causing great confusion. It is the 1993 two volume set which exhibits the horrible, colorless reproductions of Van Gogh's work.

A point of clarification on Van Gogh: The Complete Paintings,
By A Customer
This review is from: Vincent Van Gogh: The Complete Paintings (Part I) (v. 1) (Hardcover)
Two vastly different volumes exist entitled Van Gogh: The Complete Paintings by Walther/Metzger and Taschen publishing. The 1997 volume - recommended by L.A. County Museum of Art - is a remarkable book with an expertly written bio, thoughtful layout and perfect color reproductions. The 1993 volume exhibits awful, colorless prints and should be recalled as it serves only to confuse the buyer and discourage the purchase of the 1997 volume, a work of art in itself.

This is a great book about paintings of Van Gogh!,
By Kwak No Joon (Taejon, korea (South)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vincent Van Gogh: The Complete Paintings (Part I) (v. 1) (Hardcover)
This is more wonderful book about the paintings of Van Gogh than other books. I hesitated to buy this book because of contrary reviews about it. But you don't need to hesitate to buy it now! It is full of lots of great, fantastic and colorful paintings. I was so excited to look at these terrific paintings. The illustrations and colors were excellent. I guess the reviews that it is a awful book about paintings of Van Gogh is about the former edition before this. I recommend this book (hardcover,740p,1997) for every fan of Van Gogh confidently. You won't be sorry for buying this at all.
