In the Detroit Institute of Arts, you can see Van Gogh’s painting,
Self Portrait with Straw Hat which was painted by the artist in the summer of 1887.
Van Gogh did a large series of
self-portraits, which he mostly did to hone his skills as an artist. Since he used a mirror to paint himself, Van Gogh’s left side in the painting is actually his right side.
The first series of self-portraits were done in
Paris between 1886-1887, and then a bunch of them were done when Van Gogh moved in
Arles.
After moving to Arles, Van Gogh mutilated his ear when a big fight between him and
Paul Gauguin erupted. This mutilated ear can be clearly seen in the painting
Self-portrait with Bandaged Ear. After that, the self-portraits that Vincent did in
Saint-Remy only showcased his right side of the face, thus hiding his left mutilated ear.
