Self-portrait

From one of the smaller temporary exhibitions that I viewed in the Drents Museum last year is this self-portrait by Dutch painter Henny van der Vegt. It's called "Self-portrait with Anna Karenina", which is a truly beautiful name for a rabbit I think :)
The portrait is an oil painting from 1996 on a camembert cheese box.

  1. Wat een mooi portret, je zou niet zeggen dat het op zo'n klein doosje is geschilderd.

  3. A very striking and unusual portrait. If you have hair that looks like grass then you have to put up with the rabbits I suppose.
