It looks like an portrait of himself by Vincent Van Gogh, but I don't know if 
it has a special name (apart from "autoportrait").

   You are correct! I think the title commonly used in English is "The 
Picnic". 

   Can you identify the following ascii picture? It's based on a famous 
painting.

   Correct again! Thanks following up on these pictures.
   I got several correct answers by Email too.
   Van Gogh painted many self portraits. The one I posted shows him with
his ear bandaged. 

   Here's another picture. Can you identify it?

I'm not sure but I think it's called The Gleaners.
Is it by Seurat? (i'm guessing)

	It's a self-portrait of Van Gogh which he painted after he had 
chopped off his ear in a rage, right?

   You are correct! Millet painted "The Gleaners".
   I don't know enough to comment on Millais. Maybe someone else knows.

   Here's another ascii picture based on a famous painting. Can you 
identify it?

   It's one of Van Gogh's self portraits. This one shows his ear bandaged.

   I haven't seen anyone guess the last picture I posted but my Internet 
provider misses a lot of articles. It was The Death of Marat by 
Jacques-Louis David. 

   Here's another. It's probably going to be hard to identify this one too
but the next two I plan to post should be easier. One of the previous
notes in this thread might give you a clue. Can you identify it?

   Correct again! Thanks following up on these pictures.
   I got several correct answers by Email too.
   Van Gogh painted many self portraits. The one I posted shows him with
his ear bandaged. 

   Here's another picture. Can you identify it?
