Self Portrait 1903 - 1904

"Self Portrait" is a painting by Belgian artist Rik Wouters, created between 1903 and 1904. This artwork is a prime example of Wouters' artistic style, characterized by a focus on portraiture and a bold use of color. The painting showcases the artist's self-awareness and the expressive brushstrokes that became a trademark of his later works. Wouters' use of thick brushstrokes and muted colors creates a sense of depth and texture, making the self-portrait feel both intimate and impactful.
