Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley. "Portrait of an Artist" is about the life of Vincent Van Gogh told for younger students. I appreciate that the book was honest and did incorporate some of his struggles but did it in a very respectful and kid-friendly way. I also liked that the illustrations are simple but combined with his actual works. There is also a section in the back that gives more details about some of his most famous works. A great book for a biography unit, art history unit, or just to enjoy! "Portrait of an Artist: Vincent van Gogh" provides a short overview of the life of this famous artist. The colors and style of the illustrations make it an interesting as well as informative book. These drawings will surely appeal to children for whom this picture book is designed. They underscore the contrast between the different phases of the life of the artist, and how his emotions affected his art. The inclusion of images of Van Gogh's masterpieces also lends realism to the story. This book glosses over the rather negative and disturbing aspects of Van Gogh's life, including his manner of death, which seems appropriate for children for whom this book is intended. At the same time, the author leaves the door open to those who wish to dig more deeply into the life of the artist by reading a more in-depth study of his life. The book contains end notes which describe the paintings included in the book. I received this book from the publisher and from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed here are entirely my own. Portrait of an Artist: Vincent van Gogh by Lucy Brownridge is a book I requested from NetGalley and the review is voluntary. This book is excellent for kids to learn about van Gogh's life and his art. It tells about where he lived, what he painted, and in the back of the book it has extra information on his paintings. This is a find starting point for young historians or painters! Zeige 4 von 4 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

"Vincent Van Gogh loved to paint, but his paintings kept coming out sludgy and brown. Looking for inspiration, he visited his beloved brother in Paris and encountered a group of painters called the Impressionists. They showed him how to use bright colors! After this, he never stopped painting, making over two thousand artworks. Be inspired by the story of one of the most iconic painters in Western art history, told with the help of his own masterpieces. This art story includes a closer look at 10 of Van Gogh's masterpieces at the back."--Back cover. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
