Self-Portrait as a Young Man1634Oil on wood, 62 x 54 cm Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence | |
Catalogue number: Bredius 20. The half-length figure is depicted in a cap and gorget. The painting shows the artist with a strong-willed expression, in an extremely natural, uneffected pose; the figure is illuminated by a light coming from the left whose spreading glow enlarges the space which serves as a background. |
