Self-Portrait is a 1890 by William Strang, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This self-portrait features a man in a dark jacket and hat, holding a book in his lap. The background is a light-colored wall with a window, and a table with bottles on it is visible to the left. The man's attire and the setting suggest a quiet, introspective atmosphere. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting. For more information on the artist's technique, look up the art movement of Impressionism.
William Strang (13 February 1859 – 12 April 1921) was a Scottish painter and printmaker, notable for illustrating the works of Bunyan, Cervantes, Coleridge, Kipling, and others.
