Franz von Stuck (February 23, 1863 – August 30, 1928) was a German painter, sculptor, printmaker, and architect, associated with the Symbolism and Art Nouveau movements. He was also a co-founder of the Munich Secession, a group of artists who broke away from the more traditional and conservative artists' association. Von Stuck's work is characterized by a fascination with sin, sexuality, and the erotic, as well as a preoccupation with mythological and biblical themes, often portrayed with a dramatic and dark aesthetic.

One of his notable self-portraits, simply titled "Self-Portrait" (German: "Selbstbildnis"), showcases von Stuck's skill in capturing his own image with a penetrating gaze and a commanding presence. His self-portraits often reflect the artist's self-perception and the persona he wished to project to the world. Von Stuck's self-portraits are marked by their psychological depth and the use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and to convey mood and atmosphere.

In his self-portraits, von Stuck frequently depicted himself in a variety of roles and costumes, from a noble artist to a more mystical and enigmatic figure, reflecting the Symbolist interest in the duality of the human soul and the exploration of the artist's inner life. His self-portraits are not only a reflection of his own identity but also serve as a broader commentary on the role of the artist in society and the connection between the artist's personal vision and the cultural zeitgeist of the time.

Franz von Stuck's self-portraits are considered significant contributions to the genre of self-portraiture and are highly regarded for their technical mastery, psychological insight, and their embodiment of the Symbolist spirit. His works can be found in numerous museums and private collections, and they continue to be studied and admired for their unique blend of the sensual, the spiritual, and the intellectual.
