I chose this painting because its comical and because its a really good painting. Its comical because in this painting Van Gogh is painted in a sort of cartoonish way. He also is trying to listen to an ipod or some sort of musical device. But of course he can't, he can't listen to any music in one ear because he doesnt have one. Plus those types of music wasnt around in his time. So in many ways its comical. But its also serious at the same time. This artist clearly took his time on the painting. There is a great deal of detail gone into this painting. I also like it just because Van Gogh was one of my favorite artists of his time. I think that it is a really creative way to portray another artist, even one so famous as this one. So when I look at this painting its just very funny to me and I love looking at it.
