Zelfportret 1926

This artwork is a self-portrait by Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita, a prominent Dutch artist known for his woodcuts and etchings. Created in 1926, this self-portrait is a unique example of his artistic style. The drawing itself appears to be incomplete, showcasing a minimalist approach with faint pencil strokes and a light-toned background. While the subject's face and figure are not fully rendered, the drawing offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process and his interest in exploring the abstract and suggestive nature of self-representation. This artwork is a part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
