"Zelfportret" (Self-Portrait) is a 1754 drawing by Dutch artist Cornelis van den Berg. It depicts the artist in an oval frame, with a somber expression and his hair styled in a long, flowing wig. The drawing is inscribed with the artist's birth and death dates, along with a Dutch inscription that translates to "This drawing is weak, it is clear, since it was drawn by the artist." Van den Berg was a prolific portraitist, and this self-portrait showcases his skill in capturing likeness and emotion. The drawing is housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
