No, it's not Vincent!. The photographic background is very much out of focus, so that does not count as something to guess at because that is just impossible to do!. But the small little book cover thing in focus
has a certain rustic and primitive appearance!. Okay, I'll guess the little painting is what you, the questioner, have made!. Good work!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It looks like a van Gogh, but then the colors and brush strokes match a lot of artists at that time period!. The way that Gauguin's stroke looked fluid and Andre Derain's colors and space in strokes match then there is the Picasso & Cezanne!. Cezanne's Mont Saint-Victorie looks a little like this but the colors are off a bit!. Lastly there is the painting by Tom Thomson, The jack Pine, that sort of resembles this!. But I think that I will stick with Van Gogh!.
