Self-Portrait in a White Attire 1914

Jacek Malczewski's 1914 self-portrait, "Self-Portrait in a White Attire," depicts the artist in a dramatic pose, his face serious and his eyes fixed on the viewer. He is dressed in an elaborate white costume with a wide, puffy shirt, a red sash, and a large, white hat. The painting's focus on the artist's costume and serious expression suggests an exploration of identity and the role of the artist in society. The overall effect of the work is one of introspection and self-reflection.
