"Self-Portrait as David" is an etching by Wenceslaus Hollar, a Bohemian etcher of the early modern period known for his prolific work and attention to detail. This particular etching is notable for its representation of the artist himself in the guise of the biblical hero David. Hollar, born in Prague in 1607, was active during a period that saw significant developments in the art of etching, and his works are characterized by their fine detail and clear lines.

The etching "Self-Portrait as David" is an example of Hollar's skill in portraiture and his interest in allegorical and historical subjects. By depicting himself as David, Hollar aligns his artistic endeavors with the valor and cultural significance of the legendary figure, perhaps suggesting a parallel between the creative act and David's heroic feats. The work is also an exploration of self-representation and the role of the artist within the broader cultural and historical narrative.

Wenceslaus Hollar's "Self-Portrait as David" is held in various art collections and has been the subject of art historical research, particularly in studies of self-portraiture and the Baroque period's etching techniques. The etching serves as a valuable example of 17th-century printmaking and offers insight into the self-perception of artists during this time.

As with many works of art from this period, the provenance and critical reception of "Self-Portrait as David" provide additional context for understanding its significance. The etching has been analyzed in terms of its technical execution, stylistic influences, and the cultural milieu in which Hollar produced his art.
