God is in Control

Bag om God is in Control

This book is about art, works by Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) and about Richard Lee Barton (1952-2021), the American artist who also lived in Brabant for a long time, not far from Nuenen, once the hometown of the Van family Gogh. Although the works are very different, there are plenty of similarities in the background of both artists, the fight against Catholicism is one of them, neither of them was really accepted here, what a farmer does not know he simply does not eat, but that's beside the point. Both were involved in the faith and came from a family of pastors, many of Richard's and family's ancestors were pastors, you could almost say that the Bartons Christianized America, although the most important work in South America was perhaps done by Jan van Herpen, once a priest and missionary. Read all the complications in this book and try to understand how two worlds came together, its magic has a deep meaning, and that was precisely what Richard tried to portray in his paintings, something he succeeded wonderfully well in, in the second part of this series more about that, this is just the beginning.
