Van Gogh

1. Vincent van Gogh, Dutch draughtsman and painter.
   • 2010, Antonio Saggio, A Secret van Gogh: His Motif and Motives, →ISBN, page 11:

     This sensation of an object becoming alive is a characteristic that, I believe, seizes all viewers of a van Gogh. The Bible goes beyond being a simple still-life object to become a living thing, an expression of strength, an existence that emanates from itself, beyond the painting surface to participate in our very lives.
