Desperately Young

Artists Who Died in Their Twenties

Angela Swanson Jones, Vern G Swanson

Focusing on ‘the lives, influence and unfulfilled promise’ of 109 artists who perished before turning 30, these illustrated biographies span a broad range of eras, styles and locations. Entries include 19th-century Dutch marine painter Johannes Koekkoek, who might have equalled his father in skill; American neo-expressionist Jean-Michel Basquiat, whose meteoric rise ended with suicide in 1988; and Ernst Klimt, whose death in 1892 prompted his brother Gustav to move towards a more symbolic style.
