El Greco (Domenikos Theotokopoulos) – Portrait of an Old Man – The Metropolitan Museum of Art

https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/436574

For over a century scholars have considered whether or not this sympathetic portrait of an old man is a self-portrait by El Greco. Lafond (1906) described the seemingly Romantic notion as at best a plausible hypothesis, and a number of more recent scholars (for example, Wethey 1962) have rejected the idea, mainly on the basis of comparisons with presumed self-portraits inserted by El Greco into several of his major religious pictures (see also Christiansen 2003)

Louis Léopold Boilly – The Public Viewing David’s "Coronation" at the Louvre – The Metropolitan Museum of Art

https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/438099

Boilly was born and educated around Lille. He moved to Paris in 1785 and exhibited at the Salon between 1791 and 1824. A painter in the tradition of Dutch seventeenth-century naturalism, for which he prepared by studying trompe l’œil as well as caricature, Boilly was well-known for genre scenes and for small-scale portraits, of which he claimed to have painted 4,500, most in single two-hour sittings
