Self-portrait 1935

Will Barnet's 1935 *Self-Portrait* depicts the artist in a contemplative pose, with his hand resting on his chin. The use of cross-hatching in the woodcut style creates a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the artist's thoughtful expression. The stark black and white tones add to the dramatic mood of the piece, emphasizing the artist's introspection and connection to his craft. This work is a prime example of Barnet's exploration of portraiture and the human condition, showcasing his mastery of woodcut techniques.
