Self-Portrait with Hat is one of the many self-portraits made by Vincent van Gogh between 1886 and 1887 in Paris. The artist's face emerges from a vibrant background built up with short, directional brushstrokes. The hat and simple clothing frame an intense, concentrated gaze, charged with introspection.
The contrasting colours, above all blue and orange, heighten the emotional tension of the image. Van Gogh uses the self-portrait as a tool of psychological analysis, turning his own image into a field of painterly experimentation and deep inner enquiry.
