Self-Portrait. Artist: George Romney (British, Beckside, Lancashire 1734-1802 Kendal, Cumbria). Dimensions: 30 x 25 in. (76.2 x 63.5 cm). Date: 1795.This must be the self-portrait described by the artist's son John in 1830.In the winter of 1795 he painted a head of himself, which, though slight, and not entirely finished, being painted at once, shows uncommon power of execution; the likeness also is strong, but there is a certain expression of languor that indicates the approach of disease. It is remarkable that it is painted without spectacles, though he had been in the habit of using glasses for many years. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
