DescriptionDescription: “The first impression of Zorn as a person and artist is the striking spiritual massiveness of his character”, wrote art critic Klas Fåhræus about Anders Zorn. In this self-portrait, Zorn has depicted himself in his studio in Paris, illuminated by sharp light entering from the left. The artist is wearing a white painter's coat. He is holding palette and brush in one hand and a cigarette in the other hand. A model is sitting in the semi-dark background, wrapped in her long reddish-brown hair.
