James Ensor's Mijn portret (translated as My Portrait) is a self-portrait created by the Belgian artist James Ensor, a prominent figure in the Symbolist and Expressionist movements. Ensor, born in 1860 in Ostend, Belgium, is widely recognized for his innovative and often provocative works, which frequently incorporate elements of satire, grotesque imagery, and vivid color palettes. His art challenged traditional norms and played a significant role in the transition from 19th-century academic art to modernist movements.

Mijn portret is one of several self-portraits Ensor painted during his career, reflecting his introspective nature and his interest in exploring identity and the human condition. In this work, Ensor portrays himself with a direct and penetrating gaze, a characteristic feature of many of his self-portraits. The painting demonstrates his skillful use of light and shadow, as well as his distinctive approach to color and texture. Ensor often used self-portraiture as a means of self-examination, and his works in this genre reveal his complex personality and his evolving artistic style.

The exact date of Mijn portret is not widely documented, but it is consistent with Ensor's broader body of work, which spans from the late 19th century into the early 20th century. During this period, Ensor was deeply influenced by his surroundings in Ostend, as well as by his fascination with masks, carnivals, and the macabre. These themes frequently appear in his art, though Mijn portret is more subdued and introspective compared to some of his more elaborate and fantastical compositions.

Ensor's self-portraits, including Mijn portret, are significant for their psychological depth and their ability to convey the artist's inner world. They also reflect his position as an outsider in the art world of his time. Despite facing criticism and rejection early in his career, Ensor's work eventually gained recognition, and he was celebrated as a pioneer of modern art. In 1929, he was knighted by King Albert I of Belgium, further solidifying his legacy.

Today, James Ensor's works, including Mijn portret, are held in high regard and are featured in major museums and collections worldwide. His art continues to be studied and appreciated for its originality, emotional intensity, and its contribution to the development of modern art.
