Self-Portrait 1901

This self-portrait by Pablo Picasso, created in 1901, depicts the artist with a somber expression and dark clothing. The painting's rough brushstrokes and bold colors give it a sense of intensity. This piece is typical of Picasso's early Blue Period, a time when he explored themes of poverty and despair. The artist's use of somber colors, elongated forms and intense emotions are hallmarks of this period of his work.
