EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait from 1729 captures the essence of Jusepe de Ribera, also known as lo Spagnoletto. The Spanish painter and artist, who lived from 1590 to 1652, is depicted in a half-length pose, his piercing gaze fixed upon the viewer. Ribera's distinguished beard adds an air of wisdom and experience to his visage. Engraved by Hamlet Winstanley in the mid-18th century, this print beautifully reproduces Ribera's original portrait held within the private collection of the Earl of Derby at Knowsley since 1648. The meticulous detail and skillful technique employed by Winstanley bring forth every nuance of Ribera's expression and character. In this self-portrait, we witness an older version of Ribera reflecting on a lifetime dedicated to his craft. His weathered face tells stories untold while his eyes reveal a deep understanding acquired through years spent honing his artistic abilities. As we observe this remarkable piece, it becomes evident that Ribera was not merely capturing physical likeness but delving into the depths of human emotion and introspection. This engraving serves as a testament to both Ribera's talent as an artist and Winstanley's mastery as an engraver. Displayed against a neutral background, this timeless image transcends time itself – reminding us that art has no expiration date. It stands as a tribute to one man's creative journey while inviting viewers to contemplate
