EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait by Angelika Kauffmann, created around 1802, offers a glimpse into the artist's own world. With her skilled brushstrokes and keen eye for detail, Kauffmann captures herself in an introspective moment, inviting viewers to contemplate her inner thoughts and emotions. The neoclassical style of this painting is evident in its composition and execution. Kauffmann portrays herself with grace and elegance, dressed in a flowing white gown that symbolizes purity and simplicity. The soft lighting accentuates her delicate features while casting subtle shadows that add depth to the image. As one of the few successful female artists of her time, Kauffmann's self-portrait serves as a testament to her talent and determination. Her confident gaze meets ours directly, conveying both strength and vulnerability simultaneously. It is clear that she was not only a masterful painter but also a woman who defied societal norms by pursuing art as a profession. This particular print comes from a private collection in Switzerland, adding an air of exclusivity to its already remarkable presence. As we admire this fine art piece today, we are reminded of Angelika Kauffmann's significant contributions to the world of art during the late 18th century.
