After years of doubts about its authenticity, experts have confirmed that a Vincent van Gogh self-portrait was indeed painted by him.
Van Gogh Museum researcher Louis van Tilborgh dispelled the doubts Monday, saying the oil-on-canvas painting of the anguished-looking painter was completed in the late summer of 1889 while Van Gogh was at the Saint-Remy asylum in southern France.
"It feels really reassuring to know that its genuine," said Mai Britt Guleng of the Norwegian museum. "He wanted to say in this picture that he was an ill person and so it's a kind of therapeutic work we tend to think," he said."He was a Protestant and as a Protestant you have to accept the facts of life — if you suffer, you have to face the suffering."
