Van Gogh painted this self-portrait in the winter of 1887–88, when he had been in Paris for almost two years. The painting is also one of Van Gogh’s boldest color experiments in Paris. He placed complementary colors alongside one another using long brushstrokes: blue and orange in the background, and red and green in the beard and eyes. As always, every INFILTRATOR hat has two hidden pockets on the inside, perfect for cash, keys, jellybeans, or any other secrets you may have.
