The Self-portrait is an oil on canvas painting by the Flemish artist Anthony van Dyck.
The self-portrait was probably painted by van Dyck during the winter of 1620–1621, which the artist spent in London.
Van Dyck chose to portray himself as a country gentlemen dressed in fine clothes; he likely acquired these clothes due to his father being a wealthy clothier.
[1] The painting was donated to the Metropolitan Museum by the American banker Jules Bache in 1949.
