Painting Description
"Self Portrait, 1668" is a notable work by the Dutch Golden Age painter Gerard ter Borch (1617–1681). This painting, executed in oil on canvas, is a significant example of 17th-century Dutch portraiture, showcasing Ter Borch's mastery in capturing the subtleties of human expression and the intricate details of clothing and interior settings. The artwork measures 45 x 55 cm and is part of the collection at the National Gallery in London, where it remains an important piece for study and public viewing.
In this self-portrait, Ter Borch presents himself in a confident, yet introspective pose, reflecting the artist's social status and his intellectual pursuits. The painting is distinguished by its refined brushwork, the delicate rendering of the artist's features, and the careful attention to the textures of his attire, which was typical of Ter Borch's meticulous style. The background, although subdued, complements the figure of the artist, emphasizing his prominence and the personal nature of the work.
The self-portrait not only serves as a testament to Ter Borch's skill as a painter but also offers insights into the artist's personality and how he perceived himself within the context of his time. It stands as a valuable document for understanding the conventions of self-portraiture in the Dutch Golden Age, as well as Ter Borch's own contribution to the genre. The work's inclusion in the National Gallery's collection underscores its significance in the oeuvre of Ter Borch and its enduring appeal to both scholars and the general public interested in the art of the Dutch Golden Age.
