Portrait of Artist’s Mother is an 1888 painting by Vincent van Gogh of his mother Anna Carbentus van Gogh drawn from a black-and-white photograph. Van Gogh’s introduction to art was through his mother herself an amateur artist. After years of strained relations with family members Van Gogh excitedly shared some of his works he thought his mother would appreciate most of flowers and natural settings. In this painting Van Gogh captures his mother’s dignified and proud nature.
