Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), who spent his thirty-seven years in a very different psychological situation, had faltered especially in the face of disappointment. He devoted himself to his art, his art and life had become an inseparable whole. His self-portraits reflected what he experienced in his soul.
The first self-portrait of the 1886 Paris period and the last self-portrait in the period of Saint Rémy, shows a lot of differences in form and color.
One of the most famous from self-portraits covering an important part of his art; "Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear" which shows himself in the home after treatment in the hospital as a result of self-injury.
