Last year I featured a video called Women In Art that featured portraits of women from over the past 500 years morphing one into another. It was a really well done piece of work from Phillip Scott Johnson and was a YouTube sensation, having more than 10 million hits. He has also given the self-portraits of Vincent Van Gogh the same treatment.
It’s a short piece and it’s interesting to see how the familiar views of Van Gogh relate to one another and how his appearance or, at least, his perception of it, changed through the years. His state of mind is evident in each piece, with some showing a vibrant, seemingly healthy man and others showing the more tortured Van Gogh that we have come to know.
It’s an interesting little piece, coming in at under a minute. Give a look…
