That Troublesome Old Family Place? That's Where Passions Shape a Future... After plum assignments in Washington, London, Paris, and Buenos Aires, TIME magazine correspondent Charles Eisendrath walks away from the glamor.

Geniale e instabile, sensibilissimo e visionario, folle ma dotato di talento straordinario, Vincent Van Gogh può essere considerato colui che ha inventato l'arte contemporanea, e la figura dell'artista "disturbato". La sua vita fu un susseguirsi di vicende traumatiche che contribuirono a sovraccaricare la sua psiche già debole, e allo stesso tempo, ad accrescere la sensibilità che guidò la sua mano e il suo pennello. Durante la sua breve vita creò tele di una bellezza struggente - ben 864 - ma ne vendette soltanto una.
