"Self-Portrait" (1942) by Italian artist Antonio Donghi (1897-1963) is a striking example of realism. Painted during a turbulent time, the artist's solemn gaze and simple attire evoke a sense of introspection. The muted palette and strong composition, with the figure positioned against a plain background, further emphasize the subject's reserved nature. Donghi's skill in capturing subtle expressions and textures is evident in the realistic details of the subject's face and clothing. This portrait offers a glimpse into the artist's inner world and his artistic sensibilities.
