"Self-Portrait at an Easel Painting an Old Woman" (1685) is a remarkable oil on canvas painting by Aert de Gelder, a distinguished Dutch artist and one of Rembrandt's last pupils. This work is notable for its introspective quality and the intricate depiction of the artist's engagement with his subject. De Gelder, born in 1645 in Dordrecht, was deeply influenced by Rembrandt's techniques and thematic choices, which is evident in the chiaroscuro and the emotional depth of this self-portrait. The painting showcases de Gelder at an easel, in the act of painting an old woman, possibly a biblical or historical figure, reflecting his interest in narrative and character study.

The composition is a fascinating meta-narrative, offering a glimpse into the artist's studio and creative process, a theme that was becoming increasingly popular during the Dutch Golden Age. De Gelder's use of light not only highlights his own figure and the canvas within the painting but also creates a sense of depth and volume, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene. The artwork serves as a testament to de Gelder's mastery of technique and his ability to convey complex emotional states and narratives.
