Self-Portrait in a Velvet Cap with Plume" is a 1638 oil on panel painting by the Dutch Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn. The artwork is an example of Rembrand's early style of self-portrait and is kept in the collection of the Buckland Abbey, Yelverton, in the United Kingdom.

The painting measures 84.5 cm in height and 66 cm in width, and it portrays the artist himself at the approximate age of 32, adorned in a fancy velvet cap embellished with an ostentatious feather plume. It showcases Rembrandt's adept skill in emphasizing the texture of various materials and capturing shifts of light, both hallmarks of his painterly style.

While the accuracy of the painting's traditional title is open to debate, as the artist used to wear similar attires in several of his self-portraits, it is unique in the artist's oeuvre for its use of dark contrasts and deep chiaroscuro shading. The portrait's enigmatic and introspective gaze, a typical feature in Rembrandt's self-portraits, invites viewers to ponder the artist's complex persona.

Being a self-portrait, it offers a profound reflection of Rembrandt's self-image and state of mind at that stage of his life, and it remains a key artifact for understanding his life and work. Moreover, the lavish cap, the richly embroidered garment, and the gold chains that Rembrandt wears in the painting reflect an aspirational quality, suggesting both the artist's growing success and his desire to emulate the wealth and status of his patrons.

With its detailed execution and intricate layering of visual effects, "Self-Portrait in a Velvet Cap with a Plume" stands as a luminous testament to Rembrandt's skill and ingenuity as an artist. It offers valuable insights not only into his artistic vision and technique but also into his perceptions of selfhood, fame, and maturity.
