It is legitimate to think that van Gogh was inspired by its favourite's painters for the art of portrait, Rembrandt and Delacroix.

A fortieth self portrait ?
There are many things left to discover about one of the most famous painters in the world.
A young art lover, Jules Petroz, has recently discovered in a flea market a portrait which could be dated from the Parisian period of Van Gogh. If it was a self-portrait, it would be the fortieth. The small painting has character; dark coloured and the gaunt face could correspond to the artist's look when arrived in Paris, he was sheltered by his brother Theo.
He arrived broke from Anvers and physically diminished. Very little is known from this period, most of what we know being based on the brothers's reciprocal letters.
Although it is not technically early Parisian period but Vincent Van Gogh changed so often style during this epoch. After quarrelling with girlfriend Agostina Segatori, (the 'Tambourine' holder, a cabaret in Montmartre where Vincent had hanged most of his latest works), he came back to collect his works; alas! The cabaret had shut down, the lady gone and the paintings sold for a few francs to a junk dealer...
Did some of these paintings survive?
The painting is here reproduced so the reader can make himself an opinion.
And for art sake.

  • if u study van gogh's painting style. u will know that this art work does not belong to his. good try anyway

  • Dear shlsyk thank you for your comment but it is a little short could you develop your argumentation.

    jules

  • Van Gogh is my favorite artist. What a priceless find you have there provided it is an original of course. I wish you the best of luck.

  • Thank you lizardgirl for your comfort, i hope some day you can see it for real. If you come to Geneva, I would be glade to show it to you and your friends, because it is a little gem.

  • Why not take it to the van gogh museum in Amsterdam and have it evaluated there?

  • I did send a picture to the Vincent van Gogh museum in Amsterdam, to Mr Louis van Tilborgh who after examining the photograph answered "that this work cannot be attributed to Vincent van Gogh"!!!

    He did not explain why nor wanted to see the painting.

    thanks for your mail

  • oke first off all, to determine if a painting is the stile off Vincent is very diffucult,he not allways painted in stripes, so the stile of your painting could be possible, the face : yes it does look like Vincent, (you could make a better video,with a HD camera) oke do i believe that its an original Van Gogh? Yes i believe its very possible.

    go look the right people here in holland, should be not very difficult. good luck

  • All these people suggesting you take it to the Vincent van Gogh Foundation and museum Are not all that up on the way that organization really works. All one would have to do to see what their expertise is really about is to get yourself the video of Me, My Brother's and My Father's Van Gogh. This little educational film put out by Riverain Prod. Ltd. 205 Cordova St. Winnipeg. MB, then they could see for themselves what others with Vincent's art is face with.

  • Bueno, ¿quien no quisiera encontrarse un Van Gogh desconocido?. Sería noticia mundial. Y no dejaría de valer muchos millones de dolares. Sí que debe haber más de uno sin descubrir (aparte de los que fueron destruidos en las Guerras del siglo XX).

    Por lo que veo, sí podría tratarse de un retrato de la época; pero no veo rasgos faciales similares a ninguno de los autoretratos que dejó Vincent.

    Parece mas el rostro de Paul GAUGIN.

    Recomiendo realizar análisis de Rayos X... para ver lo que subyace.

  • Auvers sur oise

  • Lastly, i lived 10 years at Asnieres sur Oise very close to Auvers sur Oise. Coincidences do happen... Auvers is a very lovely village especially this time of year. Van Gogh and his brother Theo are buried side by side there. Vincent died on the 29th July 1890, from a self inflicted gunshot wound to the stomach.

  • In 10 years that Vincent Willem Van Gogh painted 1880/90 until his death at Auvers sur Oise, he painted 880 paintings...his catalogue raisone states this. However, in Auvers he spent just 2 months and painted somewhere like 70/80 paintings and many drawings...which means that he could paint fast and prolifically, so... It is very possible that many early paintings have disappeared, lost, rotted, destroyed...or...found. Keep looking you never know

  • Having looked at petroz.com and more detail of this painting which is very lightly painted. Van Gogh always finished off his work. This portrait does not look like Vincent Van Gogh... The face the eyes, the hat, the level of completion... It seems to be a study painting, a rough, Van Gogh only did finished pieces. He was hyper prolific! Fast painter. He could paint a landscape in 3 hours in the blazing sun. Why these certainties? No expert can be 100% certain. However, as i am an artist, my Gra

  • Bloody ipad... Found a Van Gogh in the Paris flee market...they were certain it was real. It even looked real, old linen, style oriinal view, the chassis (stretcher) was properly aged, and they had huge difficulty in getting the expertx to accept it. Also, in Van Gogh's letters over 800 letters where he just about mentions all his work his feelings and his needs for art materials etc there was no mention...at the Van Gogj Museum it will be most certainly refused, because the Van Gogj decendant

  • There was a similar story about 8 years ago a group of 3 french amateur art collectors 'found' a Van Gogj
