Description

Vincent van Gogh traveled widely throughout Europe--on foot, by boat, and above all, by train. He wrote countless letters to his family as he went, using the world around him as the subject for hundreds of drawings and paintings. And in his day, that world looked very different from ours.

Brimming with colorful illustrations, historic photographs, letters, detailed maps, and other documents, this book enables readers to join Van Gogh on his journeys from Z to A: from Zundert in the southern Netherlands (where he was born), through London and Paris, to Auvers-sur-Oise in France (where he died).

Offering a detailed introduction to Van Gogh's personal quest and the world of his time, The Vincent Van Gogh Atlas will immerse young readers in the history of the nineteenth century and the turbulent life of Van Gogh, the artist and man.

Editorial Reviews

This vibrantly illustrated and beautifully written biography of Vincent van Gogh presents his life in a new way for young readers. Instead of relying on straight text, readers are invited to learn about him by following hand-drawn maps that show where he lived during his short life... Reading this atlas is like exploring a treasure or genealogical map as dotted lines from the text connect to accompanying historical photographs, maps, newspaper articles, and illustrations that highlight specific details... This unique and irresistible biography of Vincent van Gogh is highly recommended.-- "Booklist (starred review)"
