Carlton Fletcher (b 1949) Self Portrait, 1984 monotype, aps only 9 x 6 3/4" return What is remarkable about self-portraiture is that a subject so rich in complexity should be furnished by our own trivial persons. The mere projection of self-image is after all only the most obvious of possibilities; the real kick is to see itself in the act of seeing, to see the actor disappear in the action, and self disappear altogether. Thus it was said, of a self-portrait by Cezanne, that the artist was like a dog that saw itself in a mirror and thought, "There goes another dog". CF
