The painting: Self-portrait (1906). Oil on canvas. This painting is in the Collection of the Gobierno del estado de Sinaloa, México.
Comments: In 1906, Rivera lost his government art pension, but he received a scholarship from a Mexican governor to continue studying art in Europe, where he went to study art in Spain and France. He associates with a modernist group of humanists called Savia Moderna. The Cubist revolution in art begins in 1907. Therefore, this painting shows signs of impressionism. Describe this painting.
