Self-portrait with straw hat - Vincent Van Gogh
Vincent Van Gogh's Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat offers an intimate look at the artist himself, revealing not only his physiognomy but also his state of mind. One of the pioneers of Post-Impressionism, Van Gogh used bold colours and strokes to express personal emotions rather than simply reproducing reality.
In this portrait, Van Gogh is shown wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat, his characteristic features accentuated by bright light. His blue eyes seem to stare at the viewer, while his red beard adds texture to the composition. The background, a mosaic of vibrant brushstrokes, reinforces the intense expression on his face. This self-portrait is a testament to Van Gogh's genius, revealing both his technical mastery and his emotional introspection.
