Self-portrait at the easel

Self-portrait at the easel is an Self-portrait by Sofonisba Anguissola, created circa 1556–1565 during the Italian Renaissance. This oil-on-canvas painting depicts the artist strategically positioning herself at her easel, working on a devotional canvas. It exemplifies her skill in capturing self-representation and demonstrates elements of Mannerism (late renaissance) with elongated figures and refined elegance. Related works include her Self-Portrait at the Spinet and other self-portraits, highlighting her prominence as a female artist of the era. The painting now resides in Łańcut Castle.
