Montblanc celebrates Van Gogh in new collection

Luxury Maison Montblanc introduces a new collection dedicated to the artistry and skill of history’s great artists, with its first edition celebrating the unique genius of pioneer Van Gogh

The new Montblanc Masters of Art Collection honours the immortal contribution of great artists in their quest for perfection in art, and is the successor to the Montblanc Patron of Art collection. Montblanc is dedicating 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 proportions of every writing instrument in the collection are inspired by the golden ratio, or 1.61 (Phi), which also serves as special inspiration for the new Edition limited to 161 and will be featured in all upcoming Masters of Art collections. Each Limited Edition 161 will carry an embossed Phi symbol on its handcrafted, solid Au 750 gold nib.

Van Gogh is introduced into the Masters of Art Collection through five limited edition writing instruments that pay homage to the various personal and artistic periods in the painter’s life, taking design inspiration from some of his most well-known works and idiosyncratic art style. Montblanc is pleased to cooperate with the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam to ensure that the Masters of Art Homage to Vincent van Gogh Limited Editions align with the museum’s insight into his work and life.
