About the piece
Painted in 1858, this self-portrait captures Henri Fantin-Latour at the dawn of his career. The work is defined by its masterful chiaroscuro, pitting the brilliant textures of a white painter's smock against a deep, brooding background, showcasing the artist's early technical sophistication and psychological depth.
