Autoportrait de l'artiste, or Self-Portrait of the Artist, by Peter Paul Rubens, is a significant work in the oeuvre of the Flemish Baroque painter, who is celebrated for his exuberant and vibrant compositions, mastery of color, and keen ability to convey movement and emotion. Created circa 1623, this self-portrait not only showcases Rubens' technical prowess but also offers insight into the artist's self-perception and status within the socio-cultural context of the 17th century.

Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640) was not only a prolific painter but also a diplomat, engaging with many of the leading figures of his time across Europe. This dual role is subtly reflected in his self-portrait, where he presents himself not just as an artist but as a learned and cultured gentleman. Dressed in the fashion of the European aristocracy, Rubens elevates the status of the artist to that of the intellectual elite, challenging contemporary notions of the artist as merely a craftsman.

The painting is characterized by Rubens' signature use of dynamic brushwork and a rich, warm palette. His adept handling of light and shadow serves to model his features, imbuing the portrait with a sense of immediacy and presence. The artist's gaze, directed outward, engages the viewer, suggesting a confident self-awareness and a direct communication of his identity and status.

Autoportrait de l'artiste is not only a masterful example of Baroque portraiture but also serves as a personal statement from Rubens, reflecting his self-image, ambitions, and the broader cultural and artistic milieu in which he operated. Today, the work is celebrated for its artistic excellence and its insight into the persona of one of the most influential figures in Western art history. It remains a key piece for understanding the evolution of self-portraiture and the role of the artist in early modern Europe.
