Autoportret is a 1892 by Fritz Schullerus, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This is a close-up portrait of a man wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a dark coat with a white collar and black bow tie. His face is serious, with a light mustache and short hair. The background is plain and dark, focusing all attention on his face and hat. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, especially on the hat and jacket, giving it a rough, almost sculpted look. This style makes the painting feel more like a sketch than a polished work. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
