Portrait of Doctor Gachet 1890

"Portrait of Doctor Gachet" (1890) by Vincent van Gogh is a striking portrait of the doctor who treated the artist during his final months. The painting, housed in the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, depicts Gachet seated at a table, his melancholic gaze and posture reflecting the artist's own struggles with mental illness. The vibrant color palette, characterized by bold strokes and contrasting hues of blue, green, and yellow, exemplifies van Gogh's signature Post-Impressionist style. This artwork is a powerful testament to the artist's emotional turmoil and his enduring fascination with depicting the human condition.
