Self-Portrait 1936

John Christensen's "Self-Portrait" (1936) captures the artist in a moment of contemplation, his gaze directed outwards while holding a paintbrush and smoking a pipe. The loose brushstrokes and vibrant color palette create a sense of energy and movement. Christensen, a Danish artist known for his expressive style, uses bold colors and simplified forms to convey his artistic identity. The artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, offers a glimpse into Christensen's creative process and personal aesthetic.
