Painted portrait of a man in a blue jacket resting his head on his hand, with a sprig of purple foxglove in a vase and a yellow book on a table.

Portrait of Dr. Gachet, Vincent van Gogh, 1890

A man with a pale yellow cap and tousled reddish hair rests his head on one hand at a table, wearing a deep blue jacket with green-yellow buttons. Beside him sprigs of purple foxglove stand in a vase, and an open yellow book lies at left, all rendered in rhythmic, swirling brushstrokes of blue and green.
