About the piece
Painted in 1851, this masterful self-portrait by Jacobus Josephus Eeckhout shows the artist in a moment of professional contemplation. Dressed in a dark green velvet coat and holding his palette and brushes, Eeckhout uses a rich, moody palette and soft, directional light to create a sense of quiet authority and heritage.
