A Novel About Vincent Van Gogh
Vincent's string of failed employments is followed by a sequence of failed romances. He meets up with his second cousin, Anton Mo, one of the leading realist artists in the Netherlands. Under Mo's tutelage, Vincent learns not only about technique, particularly with oils and watercolours, but what it is to live as an artist. Unable to afford professionals, he hires people from the streets. One of his subjects is Cine Hunnic, an alcoholic prostitute.
