About Self Portrait Nude

The artwork, titled “Self Portrait Nude” and created by Giorgio de Chirico in 1945, is a notable piece within the Neo-baroque art movement. As a self-portrait, it provides a personal glimpse into the artist’s introspective view of himself during this period.

In the artwork, which illustrates a nude depiction of the artist, de Chirico presents himself with a focused realism that typifies the Neo-baroque style, characterized by dramatic use of light and shadow. The painterly technique captures the human form with attention to muscular details and skin tones, suggesting both vulnerability and strength. The background is painted in warm tones, contrasting with the cool hues of the body, creating an evocative atmosphere that highlights the subject’s presence and poise. De Chirico’s signature is visible in the lower right corner, further asserting the personal nature of this self-representation.
