Self Portrait of the Artist with His Wife (1496) is a painting by Master of Frankfurt (1460–c. 1533). It is in the collection of the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Antwerp.
This painting, in its original, dated, frame of 1496 shows a double portrait of the artist and his wife. The painter has included life-sized trompe l'oeil flies—seemingly on the painting's surface—an allusion to the classical artistic deceptions of Zeuxis and Parrhasius
