The idea of this series is to combine a famous painting with a portrait of its artist. This first edition is dedicated to Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890), considered one of the greatest painters of all time and a true Master of Art.
He finished this painting ‘Wheat Field with Cypresses’ with its vibrant colours and striking brushstrokes in 1889, about a year before his tragic, self-inflicted death.
On this ultra-high relief 2 oz proof, the artist himself poses in front of his masterpiece. Thanks to the enhanced smartminting® technology and precision color application, the amazing visual feel of oil on canvas is achieved.
