Poor Van Gogh died unappreciated and heartbroken. Sometimes you want to believe that heaven exists and the souls of the past visit the earth once in a while. Hope Van Gogh is watching his art being celebrated and his genius being applauded.
Actually that is false. He was getting recognition at the end of his life. A work was sold. Work was included in at least two major exhibitions and a very relevant art critic wrote about his admiration for van Gogh’s work. Vincent even replied to him about the article.
No Fvd... True that he'd sold one painting, and had even discussed with Theo what coming success would do to his life, ie, being famous wasn't anything he wanted: his work famous, yes, but not the personal fame, he did jot look forward to that part of it. But the man * did * die heartbroken... Just read his letters to Theo, how they progressed, how hard Vincent always wanted to do work that was valuable to mankind, and this he had * not * seen when he died. Remember the last words on his lips, his last words: "La tristesse... La tristess..." Maybe my French gender is wrong, but "sadness" overwhelmed him. Interesting, when you read his letters, how much the opinion of the common man meant to him, his confusion qt the antagonism if the peasants/ townspeople in Arklles, for example. I beieve understanding these people would be his primary concern in his next life, sort of a "sacrifice" life as far as art was concerned, but the cost of understanding humanity better. Vincent did not have an accurate view of himself. He didnt see himself, his value, clearly. I think he probably got it his next time around... At great cost, understand the Truth about the Common Man.
Someone trying to look like him... He was popular among other artists at the time, you know: his work hadn't sold yet, but he was very well known and even then, many tried to copy him. Interesting that this "expert" from Canada doesn't mention this...
I don't even care about this topic but, I would love for them to be real; just because it would be hilarious if Tilbourgh said this: "I mean, I don't think they're very good... I would describe them as average", about van Gogh's work. That would be an absolute shocker for him.
the joke is already there you moron - this PhD idiot woman has described a very average chicken scratch as the original "Van Gogh" - THAT's the hilarious joke that you are totally missing.
@@Supahfly634 There is a humorous irony when art experts are proven mistaken, but there are already thousands of documented examples of that to chuckle at. However, I don't think swindling through forgery is very humorous, neither to whoever is getting swindled, nor to the muddying of the historical record or character of the artist.
The point of a sketchbook is stylistic experimentation. So its very normal to see differences in someones main work and a sketchbook. I'd also like to note that the man took a very realistic draft to compare to the sketch, just look up other drafts. Many have a similar vibe to the sketches. Though I will say the lines are quite different. I'm not 100% certain either, but everyone needs to stop commenting like they're an art historian. You watched one vid, calm down.
DC but if you’ve seen many of van goghs sketches, he doesn’t normally do a full page sketch, he sketches out certain parts like the self portrait of his head. the page from the van gogh museum clearly shows two drawings of his head (from the side and the front) on the same page, these are quick sketches.
Has anyone actually tested the skechbook itself? And sampled anything from the paper? I mean granted, that won't help a lot, but maybe experts could get an estimate for how old the sketchbook and paper actually is? Maybe a time or year could be obtained and then more research could done upon what is found out? Just a thought.
That would not help much at all. Famous master forgerers of the past, such as Eric Hebburn has explained that he forged renaissance period sketches by procuring old, worthless paper from books and manuscripts from around the correct time period and drawing on them with ink made by hand from earth pigments and flowers. He would chemically oxidize the ink before applying it. The result passes any sort of dating test you can think of. And the Renaissance was several hundreds of years ago. Imagine how many ledgers and periodicals from just 120 years ago are still in cellars and libraries all over Europe. Anyone with even a rudimentary knowledge of the art materials used at the time could have forged this. All we are left with, are the comparisons of The known penmanship and style by Van Gogh, against this supposedly miraculously found sketchbook.
I like how people in the comment section are eager to judge as if they 1. Have examined the sketchbook themselves 2. Have the expertise in this matter like the 2 in the video.
There has got to be a way to solve this in a more scientific way. You can identify a person based on how they write, even on a computer so surely they should be able to identify 65 paintings.
I'm 59 and have studied Vincents work since I was around 14 or15. When I saw the book cover drawing previously, not realising there was a big art critic argument over it, and despite it being described as a "van gogh" had the gut response....not his work...
I'm not claiming to be an art historian or Van Gogh expert, but I draw.. and look up other contemporary artworks too, of course. And it is true that most artists, especially those who work on canvas create a preliminary sketch/doodle just to get the rough idea. Many times a lot of details are added much later, sometimes we might infuse a lot of elements that previously didn't occur to us on the nearly finished work. Every base sketch differs. Many times its a basic outline, stick figures even, with random ideas thrown around that we organize much later. The anatomy, facial sculpture, etc. are decided a little later. And it could be on low cost materials with different tools, so I don't see why the materials used is a problem here.. Which is why I won't outright dismiss the experimental sketches.
As an artist myself, those styles are radically differnet. Using differnet supplies isnt to uncommon. But the differnet styles are disconcerting. Its not my place to say if its fake or not, but ill keep an open mind.
As much as I love van Gogh, I kept thinking about Mary H.K. Choi. Most if not all of Vice staff are rather modest, to be generous. Mary H.K. Choi is just plain wonderful. We need to see more of her.
The Dutch art historian may as well be in contact with the artist's work everyday but that does not mean he knows exactly what sort of man he was. I have visited the museum a few times and I have noticed the artist manages to surprise his audience with his unpredictable evolution. He experimented quite a lot with his brushwork, one of the reasons he is was a pioneer. The Amsterdam staff could have given the drawings a shot and investigated them better. Then again, what else is to be expected in such and elitist douchebag subculture..
This is what happens when you have a society of art people, they worship individuals which is pretty pointless. You chase art, you don't chase a person. Evans and soft murmurs gathering doesn't make you appreciate art any more than someone who can sit and watch the bark of the tree run up and then down in the most capturing pattern.
That book, before everyone decided to fondle it, would be a forensic gold mine, but we have historians so eager to scan it and publish it that it has been handled to death, thereby destroying or contaminating said evidence. People, if you ever discover anything like this, immediately and very, very, very gently and slowly wrap it in a clean sheet of paper, run crystal clear tape over the fingers you touched it with, attwch that to the paper, and call a pallinologist.
It's interesting but indeed looks rather fake, the sunflowers have a perspective that is too straight for Van Gogh as well. I read in an article there is a sketch of a landscape featured in this book that omits the Asylum of Saint-Remy which would be a very grave mistake for someone like Van Gogh. It's not so surprising considering that around half of the paintings circulating through auction are forgeries.
I have studied Van Goghs art since I was 11 years old. I am now 55. He was, and still is, my greatest hero within the Art world, as a human being and as an Artist. This sketchbook is NOT by Van Gogh. They are just simply very poor immitations and not worth the paper they are drawn on.
I can relate! I am aged 59, BIG fan of Vincents work since I was 14 or 15 at school. I saw that cover drawing recently and thought nah that's never his work (and I didn't know there was a critics bun struggle over its "authenticity"!
I'm in no condition to say the sketchbook is real, BUT I'm an artist myself and I LAUGH at the fact that that dude used the difference in style as an argument...because as we all know Picasso always painted in his cubist style for his entire life right (aka go search his earlier drawings and sketches)?
shrugs Who knows if it is real or not, but artist can have different styles. So, I wouldn't be shocked if they were his. Keep in mind a complete drawing looks totally different from the sketch.
They are too juvenile and sloppy, Van Goghs work was impressionistic yes, but the precision and accuracy is there within the looseness of the style. These lack Van Goghs relentless capturing of reality in his own style, it's not the mark of a man who spent his whole life observing and recording in his very own unique way that Vincent did..
"They are drawings ilof someone who is sketching, who is experimenting"... in trying to look like Van Gogh! These are NOT Van Gogh, they don't look or feel at all like him.
stop, just STOP taking advantage for your own personal gain!!! Enough!!! People would destroy another person just to get what they want, im sick and tired of this
Why should you if something is obviously fake? It's just a waste of time at that point. They already even knew it was the wrong paper and ink type. What other advantage would they have seeing it in real life?
That is NOT Vangogh! No Way! This is unbelievable! No way! People don't suddenly write or draw differently unless it's a completely different style. And yes. They're ugly! None of his work are ugly!
Anyone can see that these drawings are NOT by Vincent Van Gogh. The draughtsmanship is bad to say the least, they do not have the greatness of Van Gogh at his finest hour, and they just look like very bad copies of works already in existence. How can any one possibly believe that these drawings are by the late, great Vincent Van Gogh. They are simply appaling.
No provenance. No analysis of ink and paper. Some drawings looked legit to me. That portrait though, no se bueno amigo. Random ink scratches on the hat.
The sketches are obviously fake. I don't buy it for a second. It pretty obvious. The lines are graceless and haphazardly placed. They read like someone imitating van gogh poorly.
He or Paul Gauguin, his friend he was living with in France at the time, cut it off. Either during a fight between them, or Vincent accidentaly did it while on prescribed medication that gave him hallucinations.
No one is sure. If you read his diary he sometimes had problems where he injured himself while on medication, and it is probable he cut his earlobe aswell during on of these episodes.
He was born with both ears, otherwise we wouldn't have self portraits with a bandage over it. There are two possibilities that we can infer from self portraits, letters, and diaries. The first is that it was cut off in an altercation with Paul Gaguin, the second is that he cut it off as a gesture of unconditional love and sent it to the woman he was in love with. Either could be true or false as far as we know.
"Art historian' opinions," are meaningless. The only opinion that counts, when it comes to Van Gogh, is the Van Gogh museum's opinion. This all smells extremely fishy. The media, may be impressed by the hyphenated name, and purported European blue blood, but that doesn't make the drawings right.
in art you just don’t look and say this looks like van gogh than it is you should look for the history.the time period of the artist life some info that make you believe that it by him this could be someone studying his work back then or it’s just facked by someone
Because in English it is van "Go" not van "Ho." He said it his way because he was trying to use to the English version while knowing the Dutch pronunciation. Thus he got something in between. But who cares.
Definitely fake. Van Gogh was a genius.. those sketches are the chicken scratches of a greedy old lady. Regardless, I'm sure that millions of people will still rush out and by the book since people are pretty stupid.
Look at Van Gogh's real drawings. So many of them are absolutely breathtaking. Then compare them to the lackluster sketch book drawings. The "magic" is just not there.
I would believe her if she wasn't making money from them. plus if it's really his sketchbook, then how the hell she has the right to make money from someone else's work??? how did people accepted that and bought it?? this is really annoying in all cases
Question: Who is Vincent Van Go ? What the f#%k ... you can’t even pronounce his name properly. Of course it’s not a sketch book ledger of Vincent’s drawings. This is a fantasy. Anyone can see by comparison this drawings are not by the hand of Vincent Van Gogh. This seems to be all about the money. Ps. Why does the interviewing female journalist who keeps mispronouncing Vincent’s name as ‘Van Go’ have a ring in her nose ?
Poor Van Gogh died unappreciated and heartbroken. Sometimes you want to believe that heaven exists and the souls of the past visit the earth once in a while. Hope Van Gogh is watching his art being celebrated and his genius being applauded.

I would believe her if she wasn't making money from them. plus if it's really his sketchbook, then how the hell she has the right to make money from someone else's work??? how did people accepted that and bought it?? this is really annoying in all cases
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET
Fake
The moment they can't even say his name correctly they shouldn't be taken seriously
Why can't Americans pronounce his name right? Why do they have to butcher the pronunciation of all foreign words?
So fake! LOL!
Hillary Clinton, is that you?
Question:
Who is Vincent Van Go ?
What the f#%k ... you can’t even pronounce his name properly.
Of course it’s not a sketch book ledger of Vincent’s drawings. This is a fantasy. Anyone can see by comparison this drawings are not by the hand of Vincent Van Gogh.
This seems to be all about the money.
Ps.
Why does the interviewing female journalist who keeps mispronouncing Vincent’s name as ‘Van Go’ have a ring in her nose ?
