Vincent

Photograph at the Vincent Memorial

During his life, Vincent van Gogh, the celebrated Dutch artist, created numerous self-portraits. These works form a significant part of his artistic output, offering a unique perspective on his own image. It is widely understood that these self-portraits were likely produced by observing his reflection in a mirror. This method would mean that the right-hand side of his face as depicted in the artwork corresponds to the left side of his actual face.
