"Autoportrait" (Self-Portrait) is a notable work by the French sculptor Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (1827–1875). Created in 1874, this sculpture is one of the artist's last works, as Carpeaux died a year later. The piece is a testament to Carpeaux's mastery of expressive realism and his ability to capture human emotion and character in his sculptures.

Carpeaux was a prominent figure in French sculpture during the Second Empire, and he is best known for his dynamic and emotionally charged works. His "Autoportrait" is no exception, as it reflects the artist's deep understanding of the human form and his skill in rendering the complexities of facial expressions. The sculpture is a bust that captures Carpeaux's own features with striking detail and vitality, which is characteristic of his approach to portraiture.

The "Autoportrait" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. Created during a period of personal struggle, as Carpeaux was battling cancer, the work conveys a sense of the artist's psychological state and his contemplation of mortality. The intensity of the gaze and the furrowed brow suggest a man grappling with his own impermanence, imbuing the piece with a poignant sense of introspection.

This self-portrait is held in high regard for its contribution to the genre of self-portraiture in sculpture and for its place within Carpeaux's oeuvre. It is often analyzed in the study of 19th-century French art and is considered an important work for understanding the artist's personal and professional legacy.

The "Autoportrait" can be found in several art institutions, including the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, which holds a collection of Carpeaux's works. The sculpture continues to be the subject of scholarly research and is frequently included in exhibitions that explore the evolution of French sculpture and the artistic developments of the late 19th century.
