Self Portrait of Paul Swan by Paul Swan
This striking self-portrait captures Paul Swan—artist, dancer, and early 20th-century icon—at his most introspective and theatrical. Often referred to as “the most beautiful man in the world,” Swan defied convention with his unabashed embrace of beauty, performance, and self-expression, blending classical ideals with early modernist flair. This work reflects his dual identity as both subject and spectacle, offering a rare window into the life of an avant-garde pioneer who inspired everyone from Isadora Duncan to Andy Warhol.
