At the heart of his art, regardless of the medium of the work in question, lies an intense process of autobiographical reflection: a relentless exploration and critique of the self through a series of highly personal motifs, as is made very impressively clear in the works presented here. 6 works from: Self-Portraits. Each a drypoint on cream, heavy-weight wove paper. Each signed, dated and numbered. 3 works each bearing the copyright dry stamp below the image. 1 work with annotations in pencil by another hand on the reverse. - Isolated with a few faint brown spots, also on the reverse. There are traces of glue from the previous mounting. Overall in very good condition. Splendid and fine impressions in rich black with wonderful nuances. With a delicate plate tone and strong platemark, as well as a full margin and a scoop margin at the top and bottom. – Each one of 25 copies. - From the series ‘Self Portraits’, comprising a total of 9 drypoint etchings. - Published by Petersburg Press, London 1971 (with the watermark). - Printed by Maurice Payne. - Included: The 6 original exhibition labels from the Farber Gallery, Brussels, with handwritten annotations on the works. - Rare and early works by the Pop Art artist.
