Self-Portrait

Clarence H. White

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a person in an upper-body portrait, facing slightly to the side. They have distinct facial features, including a strong jawline, prominent cheekbones, and dark eyes looking directly at the camera. The person's dark hair is styled with longer strands falling over the forehead. They wear a dark garment resembling a robe over a white shirt with a high collar and a large dark bow tie. The background is blurred, with soft lighting emphasizing the subject's face. There are no visible jewelry or additional objects in the composition.
