Description
Description
This compelling narrative traces the extraordinary journey of Portrait of Dr. Gachet—one of Vincent van Gogh’s most iconic late works—from its creation in 1890 to the record-breaking auction price of US $82.5 million in 1990.
Author Cynthia Saltzman reconstructs the painting’s provenance, spotlighting the key players—collectors, dealers, museums and governments—who shaped its fate. With rich detail and incisive insight, the book reveals how art intersects with politics, commerce, and cultural taste.
Perfect for readers fascinated by art history, the modern art market, and the hidden stories behind major works of art.
