Self-portrait is a 1625 oil by Orazio Riminaldi, a early_baroque_italian work, held at Uffizi Gallery.
This painting is a self-portrait of a man with dark hair and a mustache. He wears a red and brown robe, and his face is illuminated by a light source coming from the left side of the painting. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a dramatic effect, with deep shadows and bright highlights that add depth and volume to the subject. The overall mood of the painting is somber and introspective, with the subject's gaze directed downward. To learn more about the artist's techniques and style, look up the artist Orazio Riminaldi.
