van Gogh

Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), an iconic figure of Post-Impressionism, created more than forty self-portraits throughout his tumultuous career. After arriving in Paris in 1886, he discovered the Impressionists and lightened his palette under the influence of Monet, Pissarro, and Seurat.
This Parisian period, marked by decisive encounters with Toulouse-Lautrec and Gauguin, represents a turning point in his artistic evolution. Van Gogh developed his unique style during this time, characterized by expressive brushwork and innovative use of color, which would later lead to his masterpieces created in Arles, Saint-Rémy, and Auvers-sur-Oise.
