Caterina van Hemessen (1528 – after 1587) was a Flemish Renaissance painter. 
This second work, painted when the artist was just 20 years old, is one of the earliest surviving self portraits in oils by a female painter. It is also thought to be the first self portrait to depict a painter sitting before an easel.
