In this richly illustrated history featuring some three hundred pictures, the author reveals that self-portraits through the ages are both a reflection of the artist and of the period in which the artist lived. This intriguing book is a fresh way to appreciate the history of art and to understand that a self-portrait is far more complex and meaningful than merely a portrait of the artist.
