work of art

(4 Sterne)

surprisingly good, I thought this would be boring but it turned out to be as much a work of art as Vincent's actual art 🤔

Very revealing...

(5 Sterne)

I really loved every minute of this. Though I had already known bits and pieces of van Gogh's life it had so much more meaning to hear it in his words. The narrators also did a wonderful job.

great letters. reading varies

(5 Sterne)

i found these letters an amazing look into Van Gogh not covered in the art history books. The reading is by a variety of people and the quality varied.

Very instructive on art

(5 Sterne)

Listening to Van Gogh's letters is not only instructive but soothing. You feel his love of life and passion for painting. I learnt such a lot...

Poetic words read full of sentiment
