EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait, created by the renowned British artist John Flaxman in 1779, offers a glimpse into the mind of a young and talented sculptor. Measuring at 18.3x18.2 cm, this pen and ink masterpiece is housed in the UCL Art Museum at University College London. Flaxman's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pen, as he delicately captures his own likeness with pale pink tinting on his face and hands. The portrait showcases Flaxman's long hair cascading down his shoulders, adding an air of romanticism to the composition. A direct gaze from the artist pierces through time, inviting viewers to delve deeper into his artistic world. The inclusion of a skull serves as a memento mori - a reminder of life's transience and mortality - reflecting Flaxman's contemplation on human existence. As one of the leading figures in neoclassical sculpture during the Georgian era, Flaxman presents himself as both student and master through this self-portrait. His passion for classical artistry shines through as he draws inspiration from ancient sculptures while simultaneously honing his own craft. This print not only captures an intimate moment in Flaxman's life but also provides us with insight into the mindset of an artist dedicated to perfecting their craft. It stands as a testament to Flaxman's talent and legacy within British art history.
