Self Portrait 1780 - 1790

Philippe Laurent Roland's "Self Portrait" (1780-1790), crafted in marble, is a striking example of Neoclassical portraiture. Roland's sculpted likeness presents a serene, idealized image of the artist, with meticulous attention to detail in the features and hairstyle. The work, now residing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, showcases the artist's mastery of form and the enduring influence of classical ideals on 18th-century art.
