# Self-Portrait [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [GELDER, Aert de]() - Date: 1651-1700 - Technique: Oil on canvas, 79 x 64 cm ## Commentary Self-Portrait after 1685 Oil on canvas, 79 x 64 cm The Hermitage, St. Petersburg The artist, a pupil of Rembrandt, is holding in his hands Rembrandt's etching, "The 100 Guilder Print". It is generally accepted as his self-portrait and as his homage to his teacher, but even if we ignore the fact that this portrait does not show a cross-eyed man - we are told that de Gelder bore his affliction with good humour - the evidence for this identification is flimsy. ## Related artworks - [Ahimelech Giving the Sword of Goliath to David]() - [Esther and Mordecai]() - [Old Testament Scene]() - [Portrait of a Boy]() - [Portrait of Gérard de Lairesse]() - [Self-Portrait at an Easel Painting an Old Woman]() - [The Jewish Bride \(Esther Bedecked\)]() - [Tobias in the House of Edna and Raguel]() - [Wandering Musician]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
