"Self-Portrait with a Vanitas Still-Life" (1684) is a painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Edwaert Collier, also known as Evert Collier. This artwork is a notable example of the vanitas genre, which flourished in the Netherlands during the 17th century. Vanitas paintings are characterized by their symbolic representation of the transience of life, the futility of pleasure, and the certainty of death, often through a collection of objects that serve as memento mori, or reminders of mortality.

In this self-portrait, Collier incorporates elements typical of vanitas still-life paintings, such as skulls, extinguished candles, and timepieces, which are juxtaposed with objects that reflect his profession and personal identity as an artist. The inclusion of a self-portrait within a vanitas composition is particularly intriguing, as it suggests a meditation on the artist's own mortality and the enduring nature of art in the face of human impermanence.

Collier's work is distinguished by his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to imbue inanimate objects with a sense of narrative and moral significance. "Self-Portrait with a Vanitas Still-Life" is no exception, as it invites viewers to contemplate the ephemeral quality of life and the legacy one leaves behind. The painting is a testament to Collier's skill in the still-life genre and his philosophical engagement with the themes of life, death, and the passage of time.

The painting is part of a larger body of work by Collier that includes numerous vanitas and trompe-l'œil compositions, which were highly prized in his time for their visual wit and intellectual engagement. "Self-Portrait with a Vanitas Still-Life" remains an important work for the study of Dutch Golden Age painting and the vanitas tradition, offering insight into the era's cultural preoccupations and the artistic practices of the period.
