Story and art by Barbara Stok.

This graphic biography documents the brief and intense period of creativity Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) spent in Arles, Provence, in southern France.

Here van Gogh dreams of setting up an artists' studio, a haven where he and his friends can paint together. But attacks of mental illness leave the painter confused and disoriented. Throughout this period of intense emotion and hardship, Vincent's brother Theo stands by him, offering constant and unconditional support.

Writer and illustrator Barbara Stok breathes riveting new life into a fascinating episode of art history, creating a vivid portrait of one of the world's most beloved and legendary artists.

1st printing. Story and art by Edmond Baudoin. Genius, eccentric, exhibitionist: There is no shortage of adjectives to describe the great surrealist painter Salvador Dalí (1904-1989). Yet this iconic artist and controversial thinker remains a figure shrouded in mystery. Plunging into the Spanish painter's unbridled, fantastical universe, graphic novelist Edmond Baudoin takes us on the trail of a man known as much for his talent for self-promotion as for his bold and extraordinary work. He emerges with a convincing personal vision of the man behind the artist. Dalí is a graphic novel of rare brilliance, which captures in beautifully expressive detail the life of one of the world's most instantly recognizable painters. Softcover, 7-in. x 9 1/2-in., 160 pages, full color. Cover price $19.95.
