Gauguin’s ‘Self-Portrait Jug’

Britain’s greatest forger, Shaun Greenhalgh, has recently remade Gauguin’s celebrated ‘Self-Portrait Jug’ from the Kunstindustrimuseet in Copenhagen. The replica comes in a unique edition of 10, each jug an artwork in itself handmade and numbered by Shaun. These are now available to fans of ZCZ Films at the special discount price of £500 per jug. Gauguin’s ‘Self-Portrait Jug’ is one of his most extraordinary works. Made soon after he returned from Arles, where an argument with Vincent van Gogh had led to Vincent cutting off his ear, the jug is a remarkable statement of artistic empathy, undertowed by dark memories of the event.
