The work pays tribute to one of the most important painters in the history of art. In it, the author characteristically combines a realistic presentation of the face with expressively deformed clothing and a structured background. The precise drawing of the face emphasizes the introspective character of the figure, while the dynamic, almost fluid lines of the clothing evoke movement and emotional instability, thus referring to the inner world and turbulent life of Van Gogh himself. The yellow background with a pasty texture evokes his iconic sunflower fields and at the same time gives the work warmth and the symbolism of light. This synthesis of realistic and abstracted elements creates a strong visual statement and at the same time demonstrates the author's ability to connect traditional techniques with modern artistic language.
