This masterpiece, created during the 19th century, is currently housed at Statens Museum for Kunst (The National Gallery of Denmark) in Copenhagen, Denmark. In this self-portrait, Pissarro portrays himself as a serious and introspective artist. He gazes directly at the viewer with a slightly suspicious and distrustful expression, adding an intriguing layer of depth to the painting. The artist's beard, which was a common feature among men of the time, frames his face and adds texture to the painting. The background of the portrait is simple, with a textile pattern visible behind Pissarro's head. The use of color and oil painting techniques adds to the richness and depth of the artwork. The painting's muted tones and subtle brushstrokes reflect the artist's mastery of the medium. Pissarro's self-portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a 19th-century artist.

The direct gaze of the artist invites the viewer to engage with the painting on a deeper level, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the heritage of art and the Impressionist movement. Overall, "Self-Portrait, 1857-1858" is a captivating work of art that invites reflection and introspection.
