"It wasn't until we saw these books in person that we were able to appreciate how sumptuous, smartly designed, and just plain sexy they are. Best of all are the illustrations. Each volume has 125 crisp and meticulous reproductions the Van Gogh colors are ripe to the point of bursting." -Elle Decor, "It wasn't until we saw these books in person that we were able to appreciate how sumptuous, smartly designed, and just plain sexy they are.

Each volume has 125 crisp and meticulous reproductions the Van Gogh colors are ripe to the point of bursting." -Elle Decor "We forget, in our image-laden era, just how recent a phenomenon art books are, with their true-colour reproductions of both old and contemporary works of art. We also forget just how essential they are, not just for the pleasure of the general public, but as a source of inspiration for artists and to encourage new generations of collectors and art historians.

A major decision has been to update the selection of images and the catalogue notes, but to retain the original essays, adding instead a preface by a contemporary scholar.
