1857 (ca.), Edouard Manet, Portrait of the Artist, after Filippino Lippi -- Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York) (special exhibition)

From the museum label: Both Manet and Degas seem to have been drawn to a striking self-portrait by the Italian Renaissance artist Filippino Lippi. On his second visit to Florence, in 1857, Manet made this and several other copies of paintings at the Uffizi Gallery that he worked from when he returned to Paris. Degas curiously overlaid his own features in this drawing modeled after the same portrait.
