1889 self-portrait of Van Gogh from Musée d’Orsay in Paris. The painting is an oil on canvas, the dominant colour, the turquoise blue and the absinth green contrast with the fiery orange of his hair and beard. The undulating hair and beard of the artist echo with the hallucinatory arabesques of the background. At the bottom of the frame label with inscription Vincent Van Gogh 2020
