About the piece
Painted around 1630, this early self-portrait captures a young Rembrandt van Rijn experimenting with the dramatic interplay of light and shadow. The artist depicts himself in a black beret and dark attire, his face illuminated with a focused light that highlights his features and curly hair against a muted, earthy background.
