Self-Portrait 1947

"Self-Portrait" (1947) by Danish painter William Lönnberg (1887-1949) is a compelling example of portraiture. This intimate oil painting, located at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts the artist himself wearing a hat and glasses, capturing his mature expression and thoughtful gaze. The painting showcases Lönnberg's distinctive style, characterized by loose brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the essence of his subject through a combination of realism and impressionism.
