Portrait of Jacob Meyer de Haan is a 1895 oil by Paul Gauguin, a Post-Impressionism work, depicting Oil Lamp, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting depicts a man with a red beard and mustache, wearing a red shirt and a black hat. He is leaning on his right hand, resting his chin on his fingers. In front of him, there is a table with various objects, including a plate of fruit, a book, and a yellow object that appears to be a piece of paper or a card. The background is a dark blue wall. The man's expression is contemplative, and his posture suggests that he is deep in thought. The objects on the table seem to be arranged in a deliberate manner, adding to the sense of introspection.
