Painting Description
"Self-Portrait with Straw Hat II" is a painting by the Dutch post-impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh. Created in the summer of 1887, this work is part of a series of self-portraits that Van Gogh produced during his prolific period in Paris. The painting is notable for its vibrant color palette and the use of light and shadow, which reflect the influence of Impressionism and the interest in color theory that Van Gogh was exploring at the time.
In this self-portrait, Van Gogh presents himself wearing a straw hat, a common motif in his self-representations that symbolizes the artist's identification with the rural working class and his affinity for peasant subjects. The painting is executed in oil on canvas and measures approximately 42 cm x 34 cm. Van Gogh's brushwork is characterized by bold, rhythmic strokes that create a dynamic texture on the canvas, a technique that would become a hallmark of his later works.
The composition of "Self-Portrait with Straw Hat II" is marked by a direct and confrontational gaze, as Van Gogh looks out at the viewer. The background is composed of a series of diagonal brushstrokes that contrast with the circular form of the hat and the contours of the face, creating a sense of depth and movement.
This self-portrait is part of the collection of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, which houses the largest collection of Van Gogh's works in the world. The painting is significant for its insight into Van Gogh's self-image and artistic development during his Parisian period, a time when he was exposed to the work of contemporary artists and the avant-garde movements that would shape his unique style.
"Self-Portrait with Straw Hat II" is often studied for its contribution to the understanding of Van Gogh's psychological state and artistic ambitions. The work is also an important example of the artist's experimentation with color and form, which would culminate in the intense and emotive canvases of his final years.
