This painting is a self-portrait of the artist, depicted in a mirror. The artist is shown wearing a suit and tie, with his hair slicked back. He is holding a paintbrush in his right hand and appears to be working on a painting. The mirror is ornate, with carved details at the top and a decorative frame. The background of the painting is not visible, as the mirror takes up most of the space. The overall effect is one of intimacy and focus, as if the artist is lost in his work. To learn more about the artist's style and technique, explore the movement of Realism.
