Painting Description
"Self Portrait in a Fur-Collared Robe" (also known as "Self-Portrait at Twenty-Eight" or "Self-Portrait with Fur-Trimmed Robe") is a seminal work by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, dated 1500. This oil painting on wood panel is one of the most iconic self-portraits in the history of art, showcasing Dürer's mastery of the medium and his profound understanding of human psychology. The portrait is remarkable for its striking realism, meticulous detail, and the artist's direct gaze, which engages the viewer with an intensity that was unprecedented at the time.
Measuring 67.1 cm × 48.9 cm (26.4 in × 19.3 in), the painting is housed in the Alte Pinakothek museum in Munich, Germany. Dürer's self-portrait is often noted for its symbolic and stylistic elements that convey the artist's self-confidence, his sense of individuality, and his awareness of his role as an artist. The frontal pose, directly confronting the viewer, is reminiscent of religious icons of Christ, suggesting a possible assertion of the artist's creative powers and a new status for the artist in society.
The work's composition, with Dürer positioned squarely in the center, his hand resting gently on the fur collar, and the meticulous rendering of textures, from the soft fur to the curling locks of hair, all serve to create a powerful image of the artist. The monogram of Dürer's signature and the date of the painting are prominently displayed, further emphasizing the personal and autobiographical nature of the work.
"Self Portrait in a Fur-Collared Robe" is not only a masterpiece of Northern Renaissance art but also a testament to Dürer's skill as a painter and his intellectual engagement with the human condition. It remains a subject of extensive scholarly interest and continues to be admired for its technical brilliance and its profound impact on the evolution of self-portraiture in Western art.
