Lorenzo Lotto's Self-Portrait is an oil-on-panel painting from the High renaissance period, now housed in the Galleria Doria Pamphilj in Rome. Traditionally thought to be a self-portrait of Lotto from 1517, stylistic analysis suggests it was created around 1543, aligning with his mid-1540s works like Portrait of Febo da Brescia. The work's detailed execution and naturalism exemplify the refinement of the High renaissance style. As a self-portrait, it offers a vivid glimpse into the artist’s self-perception and masterful technique.
