"Self-portrait of the Artist as Laughter" is a notable work by the Italian painter Pietro Bellotti (1625–1700), who was an accomplished artist of the Baroque period. This self-portrait is distinctive for its depiction of the artist in a moment of laughter, a theme that is relatively rare in the serious and often formal genre of self-portraiture. The painting is an expression of Bellotti's artistic personality and his approach to life and art, characterized by a sense of humor and a candid representation of human emotion.

The artwork is a testament to Bellotti's skill in capturing the transient expressions of the human face, showcasing his mastery of chiaroscuro and the dynamic interplay of light and shadow. The painting's composition, with the artist's face turned towards the viewer and caught in mid-laughter, creates an engaging and lifelike presence that invites the audience to share in the moment.

Pietro Bellotti, a lesser-known relative of the more famous Giovanni Bellini, was active during a period in art history that valued the idealized representation of subjects. His choice to portray himself in such an unguarded and jovial state is a departure from the norm, suggesting a more personal and introspective approach to his work. The self-portrait not only serves as a visual autobiography but also challenges the conventions of portraiture of the time.

The painting's provenance, current location, and critical reception over time contribute to its historical and cultural significance. As a work that bridges the personal with the artistic, "Self-portrait of the Artist as Laughter" offers insight into the human side of the artist and stands as a unique contribution to the canon of self-portraiture in Western art.
