GOGH, Vincent van: Self-Portrait

🖼 Self-Portrait, September 1889, Saint-Rémy
Oil on canvas
65 × 54 cm

Intense gaze and swirling brushwork create psychological depth in this self-portrait, rendered in bold yellows and blues. Van Gogh's direct stare and emotional intensity revolutionized portraiture, establishing the artist's inner turbulence as subject matter itself.
