埃德加·德加版画《自画像》高清图片

作品简介

这幅早期自画像在埃德加·德加的版画作品中尤为罕见，目前已知的印本数量极少。

在19世纪50年代，德加经常以自己为模特进行创作，但他只制作了一幅版画自画像。通过反复蚀刻版面以及层层叠加的交叉影线，德加逐渐构建出深色调的区域。在这幅印本中，德加在面部、帽子和外套上添加了蚀刻线条，并精心擦拭他的铜版，以营造出独特的气氛效果。他笔下描绘得清晰分明的眼睛直接与观者对视，塑造出了一位23岁年轻艺术家在心理上极具力量感与强烈个性的肖像。这幅印本是德加赠予他的友人——画家兼雕塑家保罗·阿尔贝·巴托洛梅(Paul Albert Bartholomé)的。

This early self-portrait is especially rare among Edgar Degas's prints, and few impressions are known to exist.

In the 1850s Degas frequently used himself as a model, but he made only one printed self-portrait. Through successive stages of biting the plate and layers of crosshatching, Degas gradually built areas of dark tone. In this impression, Degas added etched lines on the face, hat, and coat and carefully wiped his copper plate to create atmospheric effects. His clearly drawn eyes directly engage the viewer, resulting in a psychologically powerful and intense portrait of the young artist at age 23. This impression was dedicated to his friend, the painter and sculptor Paul Albert Bartholomé.
