Portrait of self is a deliberately and stylishly surreal statement that suggests that the self-revelatory image of a self-portrait is not always as honest as it seems.
Laying oneself bare artistically is the theoretical purpose of the self portrait in the modern era, but earlier ages were very happy to accept the artist’s depiction of themselves as a paradigm of status, self-worth and as an expression of their artistic ability.
