"Portrait of the dr.Gachet"-Eduardo Kroth, Henrique Varela e João Vicente 8ªE

The painting "Portrait of Dr Gachet" is one of the works of the painter Van Gogh. He was born on March 30, 1853 in Netherlands. The work was painted in 1890 and sold 100 years later for   $82.5 million. It is a portrait of the doctor Gachet, who appears very sad, probably for some event of the work.

We think the painting looks like a bored, sad and desperate man. Also it is dramatic, it can transmit a feeling through their textures and colors. The strength of the work is the texture of brushstrokes that make reference to sadness of man and the weakness is the fund. We found the painting moving and dramatic, to feel the sadness and despair of the doctor when we looked at the painting. Our opinion is that the expression of man over the dramatic brushstrokes make us feel the loneliness and sadness of the doctor.
