Many visitors in the Rijksmuseum use the 'in-zoomers' you will find throughout the museum: cards with additional information on selected artworks. These have now been made available in a book, a surprising view on 50 highlights of the collection. Each fold-out page offers a consise intro and points at the most important details. A great souvenir, or an easy reference work. English language edition.

Where did Vincent van Gogh live and work? What did he think about life and art? Who were his friends? And what happened when he became ill? Following the moving story of Vincent's life this book introduces the most famous paintings in the Van Gogh Museum: from the dark and powerful Potato Eaters to colourful masterpieces such as The Yellow House and Almond Blossom. It also relates the extraordinary history of the museum's collection, a collection that has enabled the Van Gogh Museum to evolve into a world-renowned centre of knowledge about Van Gogh's work and the art of his time.

This catalogue is published in conjunction with the exhibition organised by the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam (14 February - 15 June 2003).
