Autoportret Aurel Băeșu is a 1922 by Aurel Băeșu, held at Moldova National Museum Complex.
This painting is a portrait of a man, likely the artist himself, as suggested by the title "Autoportret Aurel Băeșu". The man is depicted wearing a white shirt and holding a paintbrush in his right hand, with a palette visible in front of him. The background is dark, which helps to focus attention on the subject. The painting's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume, adds depth and dimensionality to the portrait. The artist's use of light and shadow also helps to highlight the subject's facial features and expression.
