At the end of 2009 the Van Gogh pen was
phased out after more than 10 years of success worldwide; this
left a huge gap that would have been difficult to fill.
The new Van Gogh is not a simply coloured pen, like the
great artist's works, it is a symphony of colour.
Visconti have identified three key and universally known
paintings, and blended the pens' colours to reflect the
richness of nuance in each of them.
The fountain pens, roller balls, ballpoint
and pencils have become paintings and we have called them with
the name of the picture, engraved with the name of Van Gogh and
packed in a Gift Box with the faithfully reproduced canvas, an
inspiration Muse.
The extraordinary result has made us proud
of having made such a tribute to the great artist and joins
Visconti and Van Gogh among the Impressionists.
The Collection
Be inspired by a specific painting does mean
to select one by one all the resins part with a specific
codification, mixing and producing by controlling very
specifically the quality of the resins, their chromatic yield,
their chemical composition so that would not mix in the wrong
way. In fact, white and red mixed together gives pink, but
sometimes we only want to remain white and red. So, working on
the resins’ chemistry we obtained colors independent and
freely inspired by a family or a specific subject.
The first three masterpieces will be
inspired by the starry night, the Van Gogh’s room and the
Sunflowers.
We are working on other large canvas to give
more excitement in the forthcoming future.
