Vincent Van Gogh: The Letters

by carrie.frey

Vincent Van Gogh: The Letters is a digital edition of all extant letters from and to Vincent van Gogh. For each of the 902 letters the site gives a transcription of the original Dutch or French, a translation into English, a full (zoomable) facsimile, comprehensive annotation, and illustrations (about 2000 in all) of the works of art discussed in the letters and annotations. The site includes a searchable list of all of the correspondents, as well as a concordance and a bibliography. You can search the site by time period, correspondent, place or with sketches. A keyword search of the entire site, as well as of each letter, is also available.
Check out the site at this address:
