Vincent Van Gogh and Paul Gauguin : The Yellow House""

The Yellow House: Vincent Van Gogh and Paul Gauguin
Side by Side
Susan Goldman Rubin
Illustrated by Joseph A. Smith

Beginning with their ambition to found an artists' colony and ending with each artist going his own way, this is the story of how, during autumn 1888, Van Gogh and Gauguin came to live together for two months, in Arles, in the south of France. It is not only the story of their friendship, it is also about how artists generate and share ideas and how they work. While they lived together, these artists had very different beliefs about art, which can be demonstrated through the subjects they painted, side by side. Reproductions of ten paintings by the men are included, so that their styles are approaches are evident. The contrast between the men (in appearance, manner and artistic approach) will provide ample material for discussion with children.

Beginnend met hun ambitie om een kunstenaarskolonie te stichten en eindigend met elke kunstenaar zijn eigen weg te gaan, is dit het verhaal van hoe Van Gogh en Gauguin in de herfst van 1888 gedurende twee maanden samen kwamen wonen in Arles, in het zuiden van Frankrijk. Het is niet alleen het verhaal van hun vriendschap, het gaat ook over hoe kunstenaars ideeën genereren en delen en hoe ze werken.
