Miniature Self-Portrait (Anguissola, Boston)
Painting by Sofonisba Anguissola / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Miniature Self-Portrait is a small oil-on-parchment painting by the Italian artist Sofonisba Anguissola. It was painted around 1556 and mounted on a medal from the same time. The choice of format is based on Angussiola's knowledge of the works of the famous miniaturist Giulio Clovio. The painting is held at the Museum of Fine Arts, in Boston.[1]
