Henri Julien Félix Rousseau, known as Le Douanier, a French post-impressionist painter widely recognized for his Naïve art (primitivism) began to focus his energies on his artistry in his early forties, after retiring from his job as a toll collector. His painting titled 'Self Portrait' showcases his signature style as he depicts himself in oil on a canvas. Applying Oil on Canvas, this Self-portrait reflects Rousseau's post-impressionist style with its bold, distinct details and naïve charm.
