About the piece
Created in 1919, this self-portrait by Finnish artist Victor Westerholm showcases masterful handling of light and texture. The artist employs thick, confident brushstrokes to define the contours of the face and suit, set against a dark, moody background that emphasizes the subject's direct and thoughtful expression. It is a quintessential example of early 20th-century European character portraiture.
