Selbstbildnis mit siebzehn

Henri Fantin-Latour, 1892

The image shows a head and shoulders portrait of a person. The individual is mostly in profile with their head turned slightly towards the viewer. The facial features include a strong nose, distinct lips, and a highlighted broad forehead. The hair is brushed back and covers the ears partially. The person wears a dark, high-collared garment. The background is a textured, dark surface, contrasting with the lighter portions of the face. The style of the image is reminiscent of pointillism, with intricate dot patterns creating shading and form.
