Vincent van Gogh's Self-portrait is a compelling example of his intense self-exploration and innovative style. Painted using Oil on Canvas, this piece reflects his mastery of color, brushwork, and emotion characteristic of Post-impressionism. Van Gogh often used his self-portraits to study his face, typically capturing his reflection in a mirror, with the right side of his face shown—a reversal of his actual features. These works are vital to understanding his artistic journey and emotional depth.
