SKULL WITH BURNING CIGARETTE

Add a bold touch of rebellious wit to your walls with this stunning reproduction of Vincent van Gogh's "Skull of a Skeleton with Burning Cigarette."

Painted in early 1886 during his time at the Antwerp art academy, this piece is a far cry from "Starry Night" or "Sunflowers." Originally created as a humorous, satirical comment on conservative academic practices, the painting features a skeletal bust nonchalantly smoking a cigarette.

The artwork is characterized by a stark, monochromatic palette. The bone-white and beige tones of the skull are applied with Van Gogh’s signature expressive brushwork, popping dramatically against the deep, solid black background. It is a masterclass in chiaroscuro and morbid humor.

Whether you are a devotee of art history, a lover of the macabre, or simply looking for wall art with attitude, this print is a timeless conversation starter.
