About the Item
Following in line with artists before her, like Rembrandt and van Gogh, Sandra Sweeny here presents a self portrait. The image is both direct and subtle not only in its handling of materials, but also in the frank gaze of the artist. She looks directly at the viewer, confronting them with an expressionless, studying face. This portrait, executed as an etching, is built up of hatchmarks, defining the volume of the artist's face and hair. The close cropping of the image, as well as her large eyes, make the portrait even more personal and striking.

In January 1894, having completed his studies at the Lycée Corneille in Rouen, he was sent to study at the Faculty of Law of the University of Paris, but within a year he was devoting most of his time to art, already contributing lithographs to Parisian illustrated newspapers such as Assiette au beurre.
