"The Man with the Leather Belt. Portrait of the Artist" (c. 1846) is a notable self-portrait by the French landscape painter Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. Renowned for his pivotal role in landscape painting, Corot presents himself in this work not as a painter, but rather in a more introspective and personal manner. The painting is characterized by its subdued palette and the contemplative mood it evokes, reflecting the artist's introspection and perhaps his view of his own character and profession.

In this portrait, Corot is depicted wearing a simple leather belt, which gives the painting its name. The belt, along with his attire, suggests a sense of modesty and a focus on the essential, both qualities often attributed to Corot and his approach to art. The work is executed with the loose brushwork and attention to the interplay of light and shadow that are hallmarks of Corot's style, particularly in his later works. Despite being a self-portrait, the painting lacks the grandiosity often found in the self-portraits of other artists of the time, instead offering a more honest and unembellished representation of the artist.

"The Man with the Leather Belt. Portrait of the Artist" is held in high esteem for its contribution to the genre of self-portraiture and for its insight into the personality of Corot, who is more commonly associated with his landscape paintings. The portrait is a testament to Corot's skill in capturing human expression and his ability to convey a sense of his own identity through the medium of paint. It remains an important work within Corot's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
