About the piece
This 1890 self-portrait by Henri Rousseau, titled 'Myself: Portrait-Landscape,' exemplifies the artist's distinctive 'naive' or primitive style. Standing prominently with his palette and brush, Rousseau places himself within a stylized Paris, featuring the Eiffel Tower, a hot air balloon, and a ship festooned with colorful flags against a soft, clouded sky.
