"Self Portrait" by Henri Gaudier-Brzeska is a significant work of early 20th-century expressionist sculpture. Created in 1913, the piece showcases Gaudier-Brzeska's unique combination of roughhewn form and incisive detail, marking it as a high point in his brief but momentous career. Sculpted in plaster, the work intensely features the youthful visage of the artist with an unusual degree of objectivity and self-study.

"Self Portrait" is seen as a pivotal piece in Gaudier-Brzeska's oeuvre, symbolizing not only his talent and confidence but also his commitment to the expressionist movement, a genre that highly preferred emotional impact over traditional representation. The artist's bold linear patterns and non-conventional use of form are key norms of this movement, demonstrating his profound influence by non-Western art traditions. The portrait can be viewed as an echo of his own identity, characterized by a sense of raw power and uncompromising vision that distinguishes his work in the field of modern sculpture.

This self-portrait together with Gaudier-Brzeska's larger oeuvre bear witness to the artist's radical innovations in sculpture which signal his anticipation of direct carving techniques, a method that was subsequently embraced by several generations of artists. Despite his early death at the age of 23 on the battlefield during World War I, Gaudier-Brzeska's "Self Portrait" remains a testament to his raw talent and the significant impact he had on the direction of modern sculpture.

While often overlooked due to his short life, Gaudier-Brzeska's work continues to captivate critics and art lovers alike. His forward-thinking approach to form and subject matter, illustrated in the "Self Portrait", was instrumental in shaping the trajectory of contemporary sculpture, making his contributions to the field indelible and the study of his work essential.
