"Self Portrait, 1835" is a seminal artwork by the French painter Théodore Chassériau (1819–1856), a leading exponent of the Romantic style in French painting. Executed when the artist was merely 16 years old, this painting showcases the early talent and artistic maturity of Chassériau.

This self-portrait, recognized by its striking detail and emotional depth, reflects the influence of the Neo-classical tradition on Chassériau's work, underlining the virtuosity of his draughtsmanship; a trait he would carry throughout his artistic career. His youthful face, portrayed with a certain boyish charm but serious, thoughtful eyes, offers insight into his own self-perceptions and ambitions.

Rendered in an eloquent monochrome palette, this painting is a testament to Chassériau's detailed and descriptive style, taking cues from his mentor Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres but projecting it with his own identity. It also exemplifies Chassériau's masterful manipulation of light and shadow, which he assiduously used to highlight facial contours and expressions.

"Self Portrait, 1835" was largely underappreciated during Chassériau's lifetime because of the artist's young age at the time of its creation. However, it is now valued as a significant piece within his oeuvre, exemplifying his precocious talent and the emergence of his unique style. It remains an intriguing object of study for art historians who seek to unearth the early development and influences of this important 19th-century French painter.
