自画像与黑虎
大千先生一生所作自画像不少，此幅作品为其上世纪1969年所作。从中我们可以见到，黑犬毛发蓬松长短有度，质感逼真，头部的眼鼻嘴额尤其细腻传神。大千本人的画像也线条流畅，手及头部五官的勾勒也精准入微。大千先生巧妙的将泼彩法运用作为背景，并与前景的人物、黑犬连成一气，更加突出了全画的主题，由此我们也看到了大千先生将传统绘画与近代绘画的巧妙结合。
原作于2010年由北京嘉德拍卖为4,536万元人民币。
此作精妙之处在于人物及黑虎微微飘动的毛发，尚品绣坊正是采用了最为精致灵动的“施毛针”技法，才将细如毫发，几不可见的发丝纹理表现得光芒四射，宛若真人，也赋予画面飘然若仙之感。
尚品绣坊从大千先生众多自画像中精心挑出此图，又费时两年方绣成此幅作品，殊为不易。
