Joshua Reynolds's Self-portrait from 1775 exemplifies his mastery in oil painting on Canvas. Though Reynolds was a renowned portraitist and founder of the Royal Academy, he rarely portrayed himself. This self-portrait reveals a confident and introspective gaze, emphasizing his status in the Baroque-inspired style with rich brushwork and a dramatic use of light and shadow. Notably, instead of typical artist's tools, Reynolds includes a snuff box, offering insight into his personality and habits.
