Self-Portrait 1890

Vilhelm Hammershøi's "Self-Portrait" from 1890 is a captivating example of the Danish artist's signature style. Painted in muted tones, the artwork depicts Hammershøi, with his characteristically stoic expression and contemplative gaze. His simple clothing and the understated background create a sense of quiet contemplation and intimacy. The painting, now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures a moment of introspection, inviting viewers to ponder the artist's inner world.
