"... portrays him with an arrogant, cocky expression, which betrays the assured self-confidence of a young artist at the height of his ability."– really? I must say that I have a totally different impression. Self-confident yes, but arrogant, cocky? --Furfur^{⁂ Diskussion} 21:01, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi, yes and it gets even more so; in Self-Portrait (Dürer, Munich) he adopts a Christ like visage and pose. ps, don't like the word "cocky" and have removed as redundant, but "arrogant"? Certainly yes...look at the slant of those eyes. Ceoil (talk) 22:15, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
