EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait by Joseph Wright of Derby offers a glimpse into the artist's life at the age of approximately fifty. Painted between 1782 and 1785, this piece showcases Wright's mastery in capturing his own likeness with remarkable detail and skill. The British painter, known for his contributions to the Romantic movement, presents himself as a thoughtful and introspective figure. Wright's choice of color palette adds depth and richness to the composition, highlighting his ability to manipulate light and shadow. His piercing gaze meets the viewer's eye with an air of confidence and wisdom acquired through years of artistic practice. Displayed in the National Portrait Gallery in London, this painting serves as a testament to Wright's significant contribution to British art during the 18th century. It is no wonder that it was featured in "The Connoisseur" magazine edited by C. Reginald Grundy in 1930. As we admire this self-portrait today, we are reminded not only of Wright's technical prowess but also of his dedication to his craft. This print allows us to appreciate both the historical significance of this renowned artist and our shared human experience across centuries.
