Self-Portrait with a White Hat 1910

Pierre-Auguste Renoir's 1910 "Self-Portrait with a White Hat" is a striking example of the artist's later style. The painting captures Renoir in profile, his weathered face illuminated by the bright white of his hat, with soft brushstrokes and a warm, rich color palette. The portrait evokes a sense of quiet contemplation, reflecting Renoir's growing interest in introspection and the passage of time, which he explored throughout his later career. This self-portrait, along with other late works, demonstrates his continued mastery of color and his enduring focus on capturing the essence of the human figure.
