"Self Portrait With Pince-nez" is a notable work by the Russian artist Konstantin Andreevich Somov (1869–1939), known for his contributions to the world of fine arts during the Silver Age of Russian culture. Somov, a distinguished member of the Mir iskusstva (World of Art) movement, was renowned for his delicate, Rococo-influenced style, which often harked back to the 18th century in both technique and subject matter.

This self-portrait, which features the artist wearing pince-nez glasses, is a reflection of Somov's attention to detail and his affinity for self-representation. The painting is executed in his signature style, characterized by elegant lines, a refined color palette, and a certain air of aristocratic detachment. The use of pince-nez, a style of glasses popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, adds a touch of the period's fashion and may also suggest the intellectual and cultural milieu in which Somov circulated.

While the exact date of creation for "Self Portrait With Pince-nez" is not well-documented, it is likely to have been painted during the peak of Somov's career, when he was actively engaged in producing portraits, illustrations, and other works that celebrated the aesthetic of bygone eras. The self-portrait not only showcases Somov's technical skill but also provides insight into his personality and how he perceived himself within the artistic landscape of his time.

As with many of Somov's works, this self-portrait would have been well-received by his contemporaries, who admired his dedication to the principles of the Mir iskusstva movement and his ability to capture the elegance of the past. Today, the painting stands as a testament to Somov's legacy as a key figure in Russian art, offering a window into the revivalist tendencies that were prevalent among the artists and intellectuals of his generation.

The "Self Portrait With Pince-nez" remains an important piece for scholars studying the history of Russian art and the cultural dynamics of the Silver Age. It is preserved in a collection that continues to attract interest from art historians and enthusiasts who are drawn to Somov's unique blend of nostalgia, sophistication, and self-awareness.
