Autoportret is a work by Arthur Coulin, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This is a close-up portrait of a man with a light-colored face and dark beard and hair. His eyes are wide open, and the background is a plain, dark color. The painting looks a bit faded, with soft edges on his skin and hair. The artist used subtle shading to give the face depth, especially around the cheeks and forehead. The dark background makes the face stand out more. If you like this style, look up chiaroscuro.
