"Self Portrait 2" is a notable work by the Swiss painter Ferdinand Hodler, an influential figure in the development of modern art in Switzerland. Created in 1916, this self-portrait is a profound example of Hodler's mature style, characterized by its expressive realism and psychological depth. Hodler, who was born in 1853 and passed away in 1918, is renowned for his symbolic and allegorical works, as well as his contributions to the Swiss Symbolist movement.

In "Self Portrait 2," Hodler presents himself with a direct and intense gaze, capturing the viewer's attention and inviting a deeper contemplation of the artist's inner world. The portrait is marked by its meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of Hodler's facial features, which convey a sense of introspection and resilience. The use of light and shadow in the painting highlights the contours of his face, adding a dramatic effect that enhances the emotional impact of the work.

The background of the portrait is relatively plain, ensuring that the focus remains on Hodler's visage. This simplicity in the backdrop contrasts with the complexity of the artist's expression, suggesting a deliberate choice to emphasize the psychological over the environmental. Hodler's choice of color palette is also noteworthy, with earthy tones dominating the composition, further grounding the portrait in a sense of realism.

"Self Portrait 2" is not only a reflection of Hodler's technical skill but also an intimate glimpse into his personal and artistic identity during the later years of his life. The portrait is housed in the Kunstmuseum Bern, where it continues to be a subject of study and admiration for its artistic and historical significance. Through this work, Hodler has left an enduring legacy that continues to resonate with audiences, offering insights into the mind of one of Switzerland's most important artists.
