Self Portrait in a Green Waistcoat 1924

Theo van Rysselberghe's "Self Portrait in a Green Waistcoat" is a striking oil painting created in 1924, just two years before the artist's death. The painting depicts the artist in a contemplative pose, with his hand tucked into the pocket of his brown jacket. His green waistcoat is a prominent feature, adding a splash of color to the composition. The background suggests an interior setting, perhaps the artist's studio, with a framed painting visible on the wall. The painting is a poignant self-portrait that reveals the artist's contemplative nature and his commitment to his craft. The painting is currently held in a private collection.
