Self-Portraits across the MFA

The MFA’s collection of self-portraits represents the breadth of the genre, with work in a variety of mediums by artists from diverse cultures and time periods. This selection features self-portraits on view throughout the Museum at the same time as "Lucian Freud: The Self-Portraits." The artworks range from the 17th to the 21st century and include paintings by Rembrandt van Rijn and Paul Cézanne—artists whose groundbreaking self-portraiture directly inspired Freud.
