Autoportret is a 1919 by Ștefan Dimitrescu, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This is a portrait of a man with short dark hair, a serious expression, and a slight frown. He’s wearing a dark jacket over a light shirt and tie, and the brushstrokes are loose and visible, especially around his face. The background is plain and faded, keeping all the focus on him. The artist’s signature is small and faint in the bottom corner. The painting feels quick and rough, like it was done in one sitting without too much smoothing. If you like this style, check out chiaroscuro—it’s a technique that uses strong light and shadow to give depth.
