Pablo Picasso. Self-Portrait 1899-. 1900
Picasso's self-portrait from 1896 was made when the artist was just 15 years old. At this point, he represented himself in a realistic style with visible brushstrokes and a plain background.
Just three years later, Picasso's style has already evolved significantly. His self-portrait from 1900 was made with charcoal on paper. Once again, he renders his face with anatomical correctness, but his lines have become looser and sketchier.
Picasso's self-portrait from 1901 displays a more modern aesthetic. His likeness is still somewhat realistic, but the color palette is limited to whites and blues, with a less modeled appearance.
In 1906, when Picasso was 24 years old, he created a self-portrait with a clear expressionist style. In this drawing, his face is stylized with simplified facial features that are clearly exaggerated and bold black lines.
The following year, Picasso's art transformed again. His self-portrait from 1907 portrays the artist with a more stylized face, featuring his iconic almond eyes. Additionally, his use of black lines is sharper and bolder, clearly defining his portrait before the orange background.
A decade later, Picasso created a self-portrait that resembles his realistic approach from his youth. Here, he captures a three-quarter view of his face that is realistic yet also simplified to just a pencil outline.
When he was in his mid-50s, Picasso created a self-portrait that reflected his world-famous aesthetic. Created with charcoal on paper, this drawing shows him at his studio with a palette and brush in hand. His face is heavily abstracted, with his almond eyes nearly overlapping one another.
At 83 years old, Picasso's creative output had not slowed down at all, and his energy clearly shows in his self-portrait from this time. He is portrayed in a seated position and rendered in blues, greens, and reds.
At age 85, Picasso's self-portrait embodies many characteristics the world associates with his art. Though rendered with only line art and no color, this piece features a stylized version of his figure that overlaps with his own shadow. Most of his body and the furniture behind him is filled with distinct patterns and lines.
Like El Greco and Vincent van Gogh, his illustrious predecessors in the genre, Picasso seems to have had a predilection for the self-portrait, where the external image of the man becomes infused with the subjective projection of the artist; throughout his long career he painted various likenesses of himself that reveal his progress in life and art.

This Self-Portrait, painted during his second stay in Paris in the winter of 1901, was the end of a series and marked the beginning of the Blue Period. He returned to Barcelona in January 1902. Picasso was only twenty years old at the time, but he appears considerably older in this portrait.
Following his blue period, Picasso’s work began to show Primitive influences. He also began to use a warmer color palette of pinks during his Rose Period, and, in 1907, his well-known Cubist stage began. As apparent in his self-portrait of the same year, this style incorporates geometry, fractured forms, and thick, black lines.
