The Portrait of Dr. Gachet: Story Van Gogh’s Last Portrait Modernism Money Polits Collectors Dealers Taste G Customer Review: An All-Time Favorite
The history of a single work of art from conception, several owners, war, and fame as the record-holder for highest price for a painting at auction, this book is nothing short of amazing. Cynthia Saltzman’s concept is fresh and her writing ludcid. This is a book you won’t be able to put down. It has everything a good story should have; suspense, tragedy, triumph, and action. I found myself holding my breath, though I knew the outcome, as I read about the auction of the Portrait of Dr. Gachet.

This is a book I heartily recommend, and so far, everyone I’ve leant it to or purchased it for has loved it just as much as I have.
Customer Review: excellent
This is a unique “story” or “history” of a work of art. It is one of the most inventive means, by giving the detailed history behind the provenance of the work, of telling a part of, not only art history, but of the times and circumstances in which the work of art exists. It makes the work of art become more than simply an object to be examined but a real and almost living part of the culture in which it exists. The writing is of the highest quality and makes you want to continue reading to find out what happens next to the painting. It is a wonderful book that I recommend without reservation. I’ve already bought an extra copy to pass around among my friends.
