This self-portrait, created by the renowned artist Albrecht Dürer in 1510, offers a glimpse into the vulnerable state of the artist during his illness. Rendered with delicate brown pen and watercolor, this print captures Dürer's introspective mood as he confronts his own mortality. Dürer's masterful technique is evident in every stroke of this small yet impactful artwork. The intricate details of his facial features are meticulously portrayed, showcasing his skillful ability to capture emotion through art. His eyes, filled with weariness and pain, convey a sense of profound introspection that resonates with viewers even after centuries have passed. The composition is simple yet powerful; Dürer places himself at the center of the frame against a dark background, emphasizing his isolation and contemplation.

Illness touches us all at some point in our lives, forcing us to confront our vulnerabilities and reflect on our mortality.
