Self-Portrait as a Sick Person, Vincent van Gogh
In the portrait, dated August 1889, the artist’s expression is lifeless and the image is dominated by a dreary and downbeat greenish-brown tone.
"The self-portrait depicts someone who is mentally ill. His timid, sideways glance is easily recognisable and is often found in patients suffering from depression and psychosis."
