Celebrating Vincent van Gogh through the shared love for painting and the passion for the colours and the beauty of nature. Three years of intense work with the Van Gogh Museum has been spent for the sharing of creativity, inspiration and stylistic choices.
All of this resulted in the creation of the first prototypes. A work of the laboratory technicians, the graphic designers and the master decorators of Francesco De Maio company, who put their heart and soul into it and have worked with the same perseverance for defining the glazes, colors and decorations to ensure that the canvases of the paintings were transformed into true works of art of decorated ceramic.
Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) is one of the most famous Dutch painter of all time. As an artist, he had a short career: just 10 years, from 1880 until his death in 1890. As a result of his great passion, in those ten years Van Gogh produced an impressive body of work. With a collection encompassing more than 200 paintings, almost 500 drawings and over 700 letters, the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam brings together the largest collection of works by Vincent van Gogh in the world. As a painter, he was largely self-taught. With the help of textbooks, a few lessons at the art academies of Brussels and Antwerp, constant visits to museums, and advice from artist friends, he taught himself the craft and developed his own highly distinctive style of painting, made up of expressive brushstrokes and vivid colours. His style has since inspired and influenced many subsequent generations of artists.
