Charles Haslewood Shannon's "Self Portrait" is a notable work within the oeuvre of the British artist, who was renowned for his contributions to the late 19th and early 20th-century art scene. Shannon, born on April 26, 1863, in Sleaford, Lincolnshire, was a painter, lithographer, and designer whose works often reflected the influence of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the Aesthetic Movement. His "Self Portrait" is a testament to his skill and his deep engagement with the artistic currents of his time.

The "Self Portrait" captures Shannon's introspective nature and his meticulous approach to portraiture. The painting is characterized by its detailed rendering and subtle use of color, which are hallmarks of Shannon's style. The artist's gaze, direct yet contemplative, invites viewers into a personal dialogue, offering a glimpse into his inner world. The background and attire are rendered with a careful attention to texture and form, highlighting Shannon's technical proficiency and his commitment to the aesthetic ideals of beauty and harmony.

Shannon's work, including his "Self Portrait," often reflects his admiration for the Old Masters, particularly the Venetian painters. This influence is evident in the rich, layered textures and the sophisticated use of light and shadow. The portrait not only serves as a reflection of Shannon's physical appearance but also as an exploration of his identity as an artist.

Throughout his career, Shannon was closely associated with his lifelong partner, Charles Ricketts, with whom he shared a deep personal and professional bond. Together, they were central figures in the London art world, contributing significantly to the development of British art during their time. Shannon's "Self Portrait" stands as a significant piece within his body of work, encapsulating his artistic vision and his place within the broader context of British art history.
