GOGH, Vincent van: Self-Portrait

🖼 Self-Portrait, Spring 1887, Paris
Oil on paper
32 × 23 cm

Swirling brushstrokes render the artist's face in urgent greens and blues, his gaze intense and unflinching. Van Gogh's self-portraits revolutionized psychological portraiture, revealing inner turbulence through expressive color and technique rather than realistic representation.
