"Self Portrait of Giambologna" is a sculptural work by the renowned Mannerist artist Giambologna, also known as Jean Boulogne or Giovanni Bologna. Born in Douai, Flanders, in 1529, Giambologna became one of the most important sculptors of the late Renaissance, with his career flourishing in Italy. Although he is best known for his grand public commissions and mythological subjects, his self-portrait holds particular significance as a rare example of the artist's personal reflection in his medium of mastery.

The self-portrait is a bust that captures the artist's features with the meticulous detail and virtuosity characteristic of Giambologna's work. It is believed to have been created in the latter part of his career, offering a glimpse into the artist's self-perception and his mastery of sculptural techniques. The work is notable for its expressive realism and the subtle depiction of age, suggesting a sense of introspection and a personal narrative that is less apparent in his more allegorical and decorative pieces.

The exact date of the sculpture's creation is not well-documented, which is common for many of Giambologna's smaller works. However, art historians often analyze the self-portrait in the context of the artist's life and oeuvre, considering it alongside his more famous works such as the "Rape of the Sabine Women" and "Mercury." The self-portrait not only serves as a valuable record of Giambologna's appearance but also provides insight into the self-representation and legacy of an artist who played a pivotal role in the transition from Renaissance ideals to the Baroque style.

Today, the "Self Portrait of Giambologna" is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered an important piece for studying the personal side of an artist whose public works have largely defined his legacy. The location of the original sculpture and its provenance are subjects of interest for scholars, as they contribute to understanding the distribution and collection of Giambologna's works after his death in 1608.
