Talk:Portrait of a Man (Self Portrait?)

Proposed rename
I propose this article is moved to Portrait of a Man (Van Eyck). The current title with a question-mark is based on the NG catalogue qualification rather than the formal painting title. Fæ (talk) 14:00, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * There are several "Portrait of a Man (Van Eyck)"s (including one hanging right next to this), but only one generally thought to be a self-portrait. This is also exactly what the label in the gallery says, so I don't know where the distinction between a "formal painting title" and a catalogue one comes from.

 * Fair point, though I suggest we consider any alternatives (such as just dropping the question mark) as the question-mark is a headache for links from other websites and invariably ends up as a hex code to avoid URL errors. Fæ (talk) 14:30, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree that dropping the question mark after the title is a better choice, also the brackets, which just make this title informal. We can think about putting those in the introduction in the article. The name that National Gallery gives to the artwork also have a perspective thinking of attracting viewer. Following that "official" name is not a bad idea but it indeed makes this article weird, at least at the first sight.HillmanHan (talk) 00:40, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

Appearances In Pop Culture
I remember seeing this painting used as an album cover back in the 1990s. Anyone else remember it? The Sanity Inspector (talk) 01:27, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
