Pierre-Auguste Renoir's "Self-Portrait" (1899) is a striking example of the Impressionist style, known for its loose brushstrokes and emphasis on capturing light. The portrait depicts the artist in a candid, almost intimate manner, highlighting the aging process with a touch of melancholy. The soft focus and muted colors lend the work a contemplative air, drawing viewers into Renoir's world and offering a glimpse into his artistic self-reflection. This self-portrait is currently housed at the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, MA.
