Self-Portrait

Self-Portrait is a special genre in painting where the artist creates an image of themselves. It can be either a strict and realistic depiction or an experimental work reflecting the author's inner world. Artists have used self-portraits to demonstrate not only their skills but also their vision and emotional state.

For example, famous self-portraits by Van Gogh or Rembrandt immerse the viewer in a psychological illustration of their inner life. According to history, Rembrandt created a huge number of self-portraits, reflecting various stages of his life and feelings of solitude, loss, and joy. Self-portraits can show not only appearance but also personal experiences, making this genre unique and intriguing.
