Self-Portrait with Straw Hat

Francesco De Maio's collection of hand-decorated ceramics for the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is a fascinating homage to the art of Vincent van Gogh. The detail chosen from the masterpiece Self-Portrait with Straw Hat comes to life through the skill of the master decorators.
The refinement of the reproduction of the detail of the painting in ceramic captures the essence, emphasises the intensity of the colours and the dynamism of Van Gogh's distinctive brushstrokes, transforming the majolica into a tangible work of art. The key is to respect the content of the original work while adding a contemporary touch.
Van Gogh's enchanting Self-Portrait with Straw Hat is thus transformed into a striking ceramic surface, embracing the walls and floors of any room with its vibrant artistic expression. The fusion of Van Gogh's genius and the art of hand-decorated ceramics gives the space a unique atmosphere, where aesthetics and functionality come together in a marriage of extraordinary beauty.
