"Self-Portrait" by Albrecht Dürer is one of the most iconic and celebrated self-portraits in the history of Western art, created by the German Renaissance master in 1500. This oil painting is remarkable for its striking realism, intricate detail, and the artist's sophisticated use of symbolism and self-representation. Measuring 67 cm × 49 cm, it is housed in the Alte Pinakothek museum in Munich, Germany.

In this self-portrait, Dürer depicts himself in a frontal pose, which was traditionally reserved for representations of Christ. His direct gaze and confident posture convey a sense of self-awareness and individuality that was groundbreaking for the time. Dürer's use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, enhances the three-dimensionality of his figure and imbues the portrait with a dramatic intensity.

The work is also notable for its meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of Dürer's fur-trimmed coat and curly hair, which demonstrate his masterful skill in texture and form. The monochromatic background serves to focus the viewer's attention on the subject, while the artist's signature and the date, inscribed in Latin on the right side of the painting, underscore the importance of the artist's identity and the act of creation itself.

Dürer's self-portrait is often interpreted as a bold statement of the artist's status and intellect, reflecting the Renaissance humanist ideal that placed the individual at the center of the universe. It is a testament to Dürer's ambition and his profound understanding of the human condition, as well as his desire to assert the nobility and creative power of the artist. This masterpiece not only showcases Dürer's technical prowess but also marks a significant moment in the evolution of self-portraiture and the role of the artist in society.
