Self-portrait is a 1889 oil by Antoni Caba, a Impressionism work, held at Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
The painting is a self-portrait of a man with dark hair and a beard. He is wearing a dark jacket over a white collared shirt. The background is a muted brown color. The man's facial expression is neutral, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. The brushstrokes are visible, giving the painting a textured look. This self-portrait by Antoni Caba is a great example of the artist's skill in capturing a likeness.
