Milton Avery (1894-1965) Self Portrait, 1937 drypoint, edition 60 7 7/8 x 6 3/8" return This is Avery's only printed self-portrait. At unexpected intervals Milton would choose a plate and etch a nude or a head. Or take a particular oil and translate it into a print. Sometimes the lapses were two months, sometimes two years. Steadily a body of drypoints emerged and were put aside. It wasn't until the early sixties that editions were printed. Sally M. Avery
