Montblanc Masters of Art

Great artists throughout history have expressed the human experience in a universal language of form and beauty. The Montblanc Masters of Art Collection honours their immortal contribution to the quest for perfection in art – a quest Montblanc both celebrates and participates in. The story of human civilisation could not be imagined without artists, their creativity, their view of the world and their moving masterpieces. In recognition of that fact, Montblanc dedicates this series of limited editions to a variety of visual artists, whose work encompasses a broad range of disciplines, from painting and sculpture to design and architecture, covering different epochs like the Renaissance, the Baroque era or Impressionism period and beyond. The golden ratio, a timeless aesthetic principle connecting many of the world’s most admired artworks, inspired the proportions of every writing instrument created for the Masters of Art Collection.

Born in the Netherlands in 1853, Vincent van Gogh is among the most popular painters of the late 19th century, and his visionary ideas are now seen as precursors to modernism. His path of self-discovery began in 1869 with his first job, as an apprentice to an art dealer, but it wasn’t until 1880, in Borinage, Belgium, that he first framed his artistic conceptions. Once com- mitted, he set to work with a passion, painting and drawing the rural life around him before moving to Paris in 1886, where he began experimenting with colours and techniques inspired by Impressionism. After two years in Paris, he left for Arles in pursuit of an even more intense colour palette. There, he became very productive, painting vibrant landscapes. His distinc- tive style now fully formed, Van Gogh continued on to Saint-Rémy-de- Provence in 1889. Clearly working at the vanguard of Post-Impressionist art, Van Gogh breathed life into his art with his bold use of colour, dramatic brushstrokes and the impasto technique, whereby he applied paint thickly to his canvas to create depth, emotion and movement.

The Montblanc Masters of Art Homage to Vincent van Gogh Limited Edition 4810 celebrates Van Gogh’s time in Arles with design details reflecting his paintings of the Provençal wheatfields.
