Pór was at the beginning of his studies a successful portrait painter. He earned money by painting the portraits of Róbert Berény's parents, thus he had the means to go to Paris. In 1901 he won a stipend with a realist portrait in dark background which was followed by many portraits from this period. "Self-Portrait" shows self-confidence and defiance, vocation and expectation similarly to other portraits of members of the Eights (e.g. Tihany, Orbán, and Berény). His vehement and rough brushwork is full of inner tension. He depicts the plasticity of bodies by applying dark contours and colours. After this short trip to expressionism, he returned to realism.
