Detailed information

Product detailed description

The Self Portrait explores seven centuries of development of the self-portrait as a genre that illuminates questions of autobiography, authenticity, myth-making, and self-deception. Natalie Rudd presents historical contexts from the Renaissance to the present day and shows why this genre continues to fascinate global audiences.

The author analyzes works from Michelangelo, Rembrandt, and van Gogh to Frida Kahlo, Cindy Sherman, and Zanele Muholi, maintaining an inquisitive approach, challenging traditional assumptions, and opening up new perspectives on the changing concept of self at a time when identity is more than ever a subject of debate.
