Vincent van Gogh\'s 1887 self-portrait, on loan from the Musee D\'Orsay, is the centrepiece of an exhibition exploring the concept of self-portraits as original \'selfies\' at the National Museum in Cardiff. The exhibition showcases various artists\' self-portraits, including works by Rembrandt, Brenda Chamberlain, and Francis Bacon, highlighting different artistic approaches to self-expression and identity exploration. The display, running from March 16, 2024, to January 26, 2025, aims to draw parallels between traditional self-portraits and contemporary selfies as forms of self-representation.
