Self-Portrait is an oil-on-canvas painting by the Italian painter Titian. Dating to about 1560, when Titian was at least 70 years old, it is the latter of two surviving self-portraits by the artist.

Still, this portrait projects dignity, authority and the mark of a master painter to a greater extent than the earlier surviving self-portrait.
