"Self Portrait, 1887" is an oil on canvas painting by the eminent Victorian artist George Frederick Watts. As a self-portrait, the work offers a profound insight into the artist's self-perception and his state of mind during the later years of his career. Painted when Watts was 70 years old, the portrait is a testament to his enduring skill and reflective nature.

In this self-portrait, Watts presents himself with a penetrating gaze that engages the viewer, suggesting a man of contemplation and intellectual depth. The painting is characterized by its subdued palette and the artist's use of light and shadow, which highlight the textures of his face and the thoughtful expression that dominates the composition. Watts's attire is simple, directing the focus to his facial features and the emotional gravity of his expression rather than to any external attributes of status or wealth.

George Frederick Watts was a prolific artist, renowned for his symbolic paintings, portraits, and sculptures. His work often grappled with profound themes such as mortality, love, and the human condition, and this self-portrait continues in that introspective vein. The painting not only captures the physical likeness of Watts but also serves as a vehicle for the artist to convey his inner life and the wisdom accrued over a lifetime dedicated to art.

The "Self Portrait, 1887" is a significant piece within Watts's oeuvre, encapsulating the essence of his artistic philosophy and the Victorian era's fascination with personal introspection and the inner soul.
