"Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear" is a remarkable and poignant painting by the Dutch Post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh. Created in January 1889, this artwork is a vivid depiction of the artist following a distressing episode in which he mutilated his own ear. This self-portrait is one of the many that Van Gogh painted over his career but stands out due to its raw emotional depth and the circumstances surrounding its creation.

The painting was executed while Van Gogh was residing in Arles, France, a period marked by intense productivity as well as the onset of the mental health issues that would plague him for the remainder of his life. The incident leading to the bandaged ear occurred in December 1888, following a heated argument with fellow artist Paul Gauguin, with whom Van Gogh had hoped to establish an artists' community. In a state of psychological distress, Van Gogh severed part of his left ear, an act that has become one of the most notorious episodes in the history of art.

In "Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear," Van Gogh portrays himself with a calm and introspective expression, against the backdrop of his studio filled with Japanese prints, which were a significant influence on his art. The bandage over his ear is prominently displayed, yet the artist's gaze is steady and seems to convey resilience amidst suffering. The use of color, light, and brushwork is typical of Van Gogh's style during this period, characterized by vibrant hues and dynamic, expressive strokes that add intensity and emotion to the scene.

This self-portrait not only serves as a document of a particular moment in Van Gogh's tumultuous life but also as a testament to his enduring commitment to his art despite personal adversity. It is housed in the Courtauld Gallery, London, and remains one of Van Gogh's most studied and admired works, encapsulating the complexity of his artistic genius and the human struggle behind his extraordinary body of work.
