Description

English: "In this self-portrait painted at the age of just 17, Mengs exudes an air of great self-confidence. Furthermore, the painting testifies to his knowledge of other artists’ portraits and the poses they adopted. With his virtuoso skill, Mengs was also asserting his artistic independence. Anton Raphael, whose father named him after Antonio Allegri (called Correggio) and Raphael, developed into a celebrated artist in the Late Baroque and Classical periods." [1]
