Visconti Van Gogh Self Portrait Fountain Pen KP12-01-FP

Each of Visconti's Van Gogh pens is a unique composition with colors that are drawn by the homonymous painting, but always vary in their depth and pattern on each writing instrument. This is a result of how resins are mixed to become the rods from which Visconti Van Gogh's writing instruments will be created.

A light blue dominates the resin of the Self Portrait collection, it is the color corresponding to the background and the color of Van Gogh's shirt on the homonymous painting. Flashes of light brown and beige as seen on the subject's skin and facial characteristics complete the color mix.

Vincent Van Gogh managed to push emotion to its extremes in every one of his brush strokes. Inspired by this artist’s unconventional vision, Visconti created an iconic collection.

Van Gogh’s use of color is an intrinsic part of his art.

To honor the famous Dutch painter, Visconti reproduces the textures of oil paintings on his canvases in pen form.

Van Gogh connects his inner ‘I’ to the outside world through his paintbrush. His emotions are expressed through the strength of his colors, the impulsiveness of his lines, and the choice of his subjects. Nature becomes a mirror that reflects emotions rather than landscapes.

The barrel and cap have 18 facets, a shape used for the first time in Visconti designs.

The 18 facets bring even more elegance and luminosity to the intense shades of the Van Gogh pen.

All the metal parts of the pen are made of brass and then palladium plated.

The pen’s box comes with a picture of the Van Gogh painting it is dedicated to.
