Vincent Van Gogh painted three portraits of Père Tanguy a valued friend who ran a small paint shop in Paris. Tanguy would occasionally accept artwork for payment of art supplies. This one was painted in 1887 and is hanging at the Musee Rodin in Paris.
"Painting is a faith,
and it imposes the duty to disregard public opinion."
--Vincent Van Gogh
