Self-Portrait Replica on Canvas
Your own Van Gogh painting will look and feel like the original. Here at the Van Gogh Studio, each of our paintings is hand painted by Dutch and wolrd artists who have studied Van Gogh’s techniques as part of their creative practise. Their training has emphasised brush stroke, colour mixing, ambience and rhythm of application.
We are based in Amsterdam near the
Van Gogh Museum itself. This gives our artists unrivalled access to the continual study and deep understanding of the great master’s techniques. In maintaining this knowledge, we are contributing to the preservation of the country’s rich culture.
Van Gogh’s Final Self-Portrait
This painting is considered a particularly important work in Van Gogh’s oeuvre, given that many historians believe it to be his final self-portrait.
It was painted towards the end of his self-imposed defection to an asylum in
Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. He’d sought refuge there after his mental struggles had come to a head with his notorious ear cutting episode. The relative calm and order of his stay resulted in some of his greatest masterpieces, of which Self-Portrait is certainly one.
