"Self-portrait" (1893) is a graphite drawing by the French painter Paul-Albert Besnard (1849-1934). The drawing shows Besnard's head and shoulders, rendered in a style that is both naturalistic and impressionistic. Besnard's signature, in his own hand, and the date appear to the right of the subject's head. This drawing exemplifies Besnard's exploration of portraiture and his use of fine lines to capture likeness and texture.
