"Self-Portrait c. 1635" is a notable work by Dutch Golden Age painter Judith Leyster, one of the few female artists of her time to achieve professional recognition. The painting is a testament to Leyster's skill and confidence as an artist, showcasing her at work with a palette in hand, smiling towards the viewer. This self-portrait is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its autobiographical insight into the life of a woman artist in the 17th century.

The painting is characterized by Leyster's lively brushwork and the engaging eye contact she makes with the viewer, which was a relatively unusual approach for self-portraits at the time. She is depicted in the act of painting, with her attention momentarily diverted from her work to engage with the onlooker. This interaction invites the viewer into her world, suggesting both her sociability and her professional status.

Leyster's attire in the portrait is that of a well-to-do woman, rather than an artist's working clothes, which may have been a strategic choice to portray herself as a successful and respectable member of society. The inclusion of a violin in the background hints at her appreciation for music, reflecting the cultural milieu in which she was active.

The self-portrait is often praised for its technical proficiency and its bold statement of the artist's identity and capabilities. It is housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and remains one of Leyster's most celebrated works, contributing to the understanding of the role of women in the arts during the Dutch Golden Age.
