Letters to Brother Theo Limited Edition Design

In just over ten years, Van Gogh created more than 2100 works, including about 860 oil paintings. Among them are portraits, self-portraits, landscapes, and still lifes, depicting olive trees, cypress trees, wheat fields, and sunflowers. Most critics did not notice Van Gogh until his suicide at the age of 37, which was preceded by years of anxiety, poverty, and mental disturbances. A special person in Van Gogh's life was his brother Theodorus. Throughout his life, he provided Vincent with moral and financial support. After the artist's death, over 900 letters were found, mostly addressed to his brother. Van Gogh proved to be a talented master not only of the brush but also of the pen. These letters, collected together, represent an unparalleled human document: they open a door into the world of this genius madman, revealing not only the path of his development but also showing how a new language of painting was created, which had a timeless impact on the art of the 20th century.
