*** About Portrait of Dr. Gachet: Painted in June 1890, mere weeks before Van Gogh’s demise, this painting is one of his most poignant portraits. It captures Dr. Gachet, who attended to Van Gogh during the final months of the artist’s life. Embedded in the Expressionist style, the painting's vibrant hues and dynamic brush strokes convey the emotional turmoil Van Gogh experienced, mirrored in the somber expression of Dr. Gachet. The inspiration behind this work stemmed from Van Gogh’s appreciation of Dr. Gachet's understanding of the struggles faced by artists, particularly those suffering from mental anguish. The painting is currently housed in the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, serving as a significant piece representing the final phase of Van Gogh’s artistic journey, marked by profound emotional depth and innovation in the use of color and technique.
