It probably served as the study for an identical face that looks out from his \u003ci\u003eSurrender of Breda\u003c\/i\u003e (ca. 1635, Museo del Prado, Madrid), an important early commission for Philip IV’s Buen Retiro Palace. That figure has sometimes been taken as a self-portrait following a grand tradition of artists cleverly inserting themselves into historical or biblical subjects. If this study is a self-portrait, it could be the one described as half-length and unfinished in a posthumous inventory of Velázquez’s works.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/437874\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - Portrait of a Man Possibly a Self-Portrait\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Velázquez (Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez)","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49888255967475,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (27\" x 21 3\/4\")","offer_id":49888256000243,"sku":null,"price":1057.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (19 7\/8\" x 16\")","offer_id":49888256033011,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (24 3\/8\" x 19 5\/8\")","offer_id":49888256065779,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (29 7\/8\" x 24\")","offer_id":49888256098547,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (38 5\/8\" x 31 1\/8\")","offer_id":49888256131315,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (46 3\/8\" x 37 1\/4\")","offer_id":49888256164083,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (54 5\/8\" x 44\")","offer_id":49888256196851,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (65 1\/2\" x 52 5\/8\")","offer_id":49888256229619,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/PortraitofaManPossiblyaSelf-Portrait.jpg?v=1785045278","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/portrait-of-a-man-possibly-a-self-portrait","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
