Self-Portrait with a Sunflower is a self-portrait by Anthony van Dyck, a Flemish Baroque artist from Antwerp, Spanish Netherlands. The oil on canvas is thought to have been painted between the years 1632-1633. Produced at the height of his fame, Anthony van Dyck served as "principal Paynter in order to their Majesties" in the court of Charles I of England whilst working on this self-portrait. The symbolism behind the sunflower and gold chain have been a point of contention amongst various art historians. His successful ventures in the southern part of the Netherlands and Italy propelled him into a career as court painter and made him a favourite of King Charles I and his court. Van Dyck's devotion for capturing the likeness of his models gave him authority over the world of portraiture lon

  • L'Autoportrait au tournesol est un tableau du peintre Antoine van Dyck réalisé entre 1632 et 1633. Dans cet autoportrait, Antoine Van Dyck s'est représenté face à un grand tournesol qui est tourné vers lui, tandis que lui-même, par-dessus l’épaule, tourne son regard vers le spectateur, en montrant d'une main le tournesol et de l’autre soulevant la chaîne d’or qui lui avait été remise par le roi d'Angleterre Charles Ier d'Angleterre pour avoir réalisé le portrait de l’Infante Isabelle. Le tournesol, quant à lui, symbolise la relation entre le peintre et le roi, cette fleur étant généralement l'emblème du patronage royal. Van Dyck s'est largement inspiré de son autoportrait pour réaliser un portrait de son ami, le naturaliste et astrologue Kenelm Digby. Cette œuvre est actuellement conservée dans une collection privée. (fr)

The symbolism behind the sunflower and gold chain have been a point of contention amongst various art historians. His successful ventures in the southern part of the Netherlands and Italy propelled him into a career as court painter and made him a favourite of King Charles I and his court. Van Dyck's devotion for capturing the likeness of his models gave him authority over the world of portraiture long after his death in 1641. With such a long and storied career in art, his portrait technique evolved into what is referred to as his Late English period as seen in Self-Portrait with a Sunflower. This work is now in the private collection of the Duke of Westminster, housed at Eaton Hall in Cheshire. (en)
  • Questo autoritratto fu eseguito da van Dyck durante il periodo di fama maggiore: era stato infatti da poco nominato principal Paynter in order to their Majesties, primo pittore di corte da re Carlo I e gli erano state donate una grande collana d'oro ed il titolo Sir. Van Dyck indossa un abito di seta cremisi e volge lo sguardo per osservare gli spettatori. Accanto al pittore si staglia un grande girasole, sul cui significato si è sempre molto dibattuto. (it)
