This self-portrait by French artist Armand Guillaumin, created sometime between 1841 and 1927, presents a close-up view of the artist's face, partially obscured by a black bowler hat. The thick impasto brushstrokes and bold color choices, characteristic of the Impressionist movement, create a textured and dynamic composition. Guillaumin's expression is pensive, his hand resting on his chin as he gazes intently at the viewer, inviting contemplation and engagement with his artistic process.
