This painting by Flemish Baroque artist Anthony Van Dyck is titled Portrait of Van Dyck or The Artist and is a self-portrait.
Anthony Van Dyck (1599-1641) was a Flemish Baroque artist. He became the leading court painter in England and is renowned for his portraits of Charles I of England and his family. Among his other works are Portrait of the Artist's Wife and Duke of Richmond. This painting is titled Portrait of Van Dyck or The Artist, and it is a self-portrait, perhaps one of his most striking of Van Dyck. It was painted at a fairly late date in his career and shows him prosperous and rich and content with himself. Indeed, a deal of the fascination of his art arises from his approaching his subjects in this happy frame of mind.
