Self-portrait is a 1924 oil by Emily Carr, a Post-Impressionism work, depicting Painting, held at Vancouver Art Gallery.
The painting features a woman sitting in a chair, facing away from the viewer. She has dark hair and is wearing a black dress with a red scarf around her neck. The background is a room with a window on the left side, and the overall atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation. The woman's posture suggests a sense of introspection, and the use of dark colors adds to the somber mood. The painting's style is characterized by bold brushstrokes and vivid colors, which gives it a dynamic and expressive quality.
