We also forget just how essential they are, not just for the pleasure of the general public, but as a source of inspiration for artists and to encourage new generations of collectors and art historians. One key factor in this progress was the founding of Phaidon Press in 1923... Last year Phaidon embarked on a major project to produce a new series of 'Phaidon Classics'... A major decision has been to update the selection of images and the catalogue notes, but to retain the original essays, adding instead a preface by a contemporary scholar. What you get, therefore, besides a beautiful book, is a fascinating dialogue between quite different styles of address to the art-loving audience. This is an astute move.\u0026quot; \u0026#8212;\u003cem\u003eApollo-magazine.com\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e","webShortDescription":"\u003cp\u003eLuxurious collector’s edition of the work of Vincent van Gogh\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"}
