The article is devoted to the changes in the space representing the background in the selfie through the historical experience of the self-portrait in the visual culture. The digital photographic self-portrait (selfie), which has become one of the most striking phenomena of the visual culture of our time in the context of historical experience of visual representation in the context of a rapidly changing cultural situation (transition from “linguistic” to “iconic turn”) in the context of historical experience of visual representation allows the author to focus on those changes which occur between the viewer and the model, the selfi-maker. The author also pays attention to the role of linear perspective in the issue under consideration, techniques and ways of reflecting Euclidean and non-Euclidean spaces on the pictorial plane using examples of contemporary photography, paintings by Jan van Eyck (“Portrait of Arnolfini couple”) and Parmigianino (“Self portrait in a convex mirror”).
