GOGH, Vincent van: Self-Portrait

🖼 Self-Portrait, August 1889, Saint-Rémy
Oil on canvas
57 × 44 cm

Intense gaze and swirling brushstrokes define this self-portrait, painted in bold greens and reds with expressionistic fervor. Van Gogh's psychological vulnerability transformed the self-portrait genre, making introspection central to modern art's emotional authenticity.
