Self Portrait, 1999

Relief etching on Japanese paper, 100 x 76.2 cm (39 x 30 in). Edition of 99, signed and numbered.

This edition from 1999 portrays Chuck Close in one of his iconic self-portraits rendered in his innovative and distinctive style. Close's composites of multiple small geometric forms are a testament to his skillful brushwork and, reminiscent of pixelated photographs, appear highly contemporary.
