Vincent & Theo: The Van Gogh Brothers

I loved this book. The design of this book with the illustrations is beautiful. I learnt a lot about the Van Gogh brothers & their friendship, it touched my heart. I also liked that the chapters are quite short,making it easy to dip in and out of. Recommended.

I really enjoyed this book, it is a beautiful story between two brothers that loved each other but at the same time went through many difficulties. I don't usually read non-fiction but I recommed this to everyone, especially fellow art lovers. Also the cover is beautiful and the book inside as well, it has a lot of Van Gogh's pictures and drawings that I have personally never seen before. It is a work of art inside and out.

I read this book in 4 days. It completely gripped me. The story between the 2 brothers, garnered from their letters was so compelling. I recently visited Arles and Vincent Van Gogh’s asylum in St Remy de Provence, so the story really resonated with me. Beautifully written and a great insight into an amazing relationship between two creative souls.

Excellent read for first timer , nothing new to learn here ! Are the hats on the front cover allotted to the wrong brother?

It is a great insight into the family life of Van Gogh and how his life + unfortunate events affected his brother
