Autoportret is a 1930 unspecified by Tache Papatriandafil, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a man sitting at a table, looking directly at the viewer. He has dark hair and is wearing a dark vest over a white shirt with a patterned scarf around his neck. On the table in front of him are various objects, including a white pitcher with red flowers, a plate, a book, and a small orange. The man is holding a paintbrush in his right hand, suggesting that he is an artist. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation, with the subject lost in thought as he gazes out at the viewer. To learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts of light and dark to create a sense of volume in a painting, look up the artist Papatriandafil, Tache.
