"Autoportret w stroju polskiego szlachcica" (Self-Portrait in the Costume of a Polish Nobleman) is a notable painting by the Polish-Jewish artist Maurycy Gottlieb, created in 1874. Gottlieb, born in 1856 in Drohobych, was a prominent figure in 19th-century Polish art and is celebrated for his ability to blend Jewish themes with broader European artistic traditions.

This self-portrait is a striking example of Gottlieb's skill in capturing both personal identity and cultural heritage. In the painting, Gottlieb depicts himself wearing the traditional attire of a Polish nobleman, known as a "szlachcic." This choice of clothing is significant, as it reflects the artist's exploration of his own identity, bridging his Jewish roots with his Polish nationality. The attire includes a richly decorated robe and a fur-lined cap, elements that were typical of the Polish nobility during that era.

Gottlieb's use of light and shadow in the painting highlights his adeptness in creating depth and texture, bringing a lifelike quality to the portrait. His expression is contemplative, suggesting a sense of introspection and self-awareness. This work is often interpreted as a statement on the complex identity of Polish Jews in the 19th century, navigating between different cultural and national affiliations.

The painting is also a testament to Gottlieb's broader artistic ambitions. He studied under Jan Matejko, a leading Polish painter, and was influenced by the Romantic and Realist movements. Gottlieb's work often addressed themes of identity, history, and religion, making him a unique voice in the art world of his time.

"Autoportret w stroju polskiego szlachcica" remains an important piece in understanding the intersection of Jewish and Polish identities, as well as Gottlieb's personal journey as an artist. The painting is housed in the collection of the National Museum in Warsaw, where it continues to be appreciated for its historical and cultural significance.
