Henri Charrier, Portrait Of An Artist Gentle The painting is housed withinA fine late 19th century portrait (possibly self portrait) of a bearded artist wearing a beret and glasses. He looks across to our right with slightly raised eyebrows, an inquisitive brow, and a desire to be taken seriously. It reminds us of the drama and heightened sense of self often found in Gustave Courbets (1819 1877) self portraits. This coupled with a style rooted in the old masters Rembrandt (1606 1669) and Albrecht Drer (1471 1528)
