Skeleton with Burning Cigarette | Vincent van Gogh Notebook

Skull of a Skeleton with Burning Cigarette (1886) by Vincent van Gogh is a striking and unconventional still-life painting that features a human skull with a lit cigarette between its teeth. The dark background enhances the starkness of the skeletal figure, while the small plume of smoke adds a sense of transience and irony. This artwork, created during Van Gogh's time at the Antwerp Academy, reflects his exploration of anatomy and his penchant for darker, experimental themes.
