The Son of Man is a self-portrait of Reina Magritte of the Surrealist drawn in 1964 and currently lives in a private collection.
In this picture, a dark suit man and a white dress shirt red tie and dark hat are standing in front of the audience completely. Behind him there is a wall like a burning block, roughly rose to the waist height. Later, people can see part of the water, perhaps the ocean. There is a cloud on the sky above the sea, giving the picture a dark shade, a unique white background, a dark gray cloud.
However, the most impressive part of this picture is a prospect. Here, an unexplained green apple stays in front of the subject, disturbing his character. The apple is inconspicuous, and the four leaves symmetrical with the stem are intact. Nonetheless, the object appears to be disturbed by the presence of fruit in some way, in a normal portrait style, in some way and towards the audience. The audience could hardly see the left eye white passing past the edge of the apparition, suggesting that he was staring at the front. Due to the back flexion of the elbow joint, the picture of another unfavorable aspect, it seems somewhat deformed, is the subject of the left arm
This picture is similar to other paintings of Magritte, great warfare on the outer wall, drawing a woman in a similar situation near the seaside wall. . Besides that, it closely resembles a man who draws a bowling hat, where a man is wearing a chest that resembles clothes and has a bird in front of the owner's face. All three pictures seem to include covering the subject of true self from the audience.
The significance of this picture is mysterious but it can be inferred from several meanings of Magritt's own words. He says the people, the curiosity of the human curiosity we are seeing behind other objects we see hidden things, people are often feeling frustrated with this pursuit. As Margaret said, the painting seems to capture this setback, or 'confrontation'. Whether it comes to human conflict or not, the meaning of this dispute, whether it tells the occasionally hidden objects behind other objects, or whether to rely on interpretation of all, other people's interrogation I want to hide the true face. On the surface, however, this is aroused the audience 's curiosity, making him feel as if he did not see the whole picture, making him slightly dissatisfied, and having an interesting mystery in what he sees It is exercise. .
Magritte's paintings and the other two sons are very similar. The great war (La grande guerre, 1964) is a variant of a human child, just representing the upper body and head of a man of a hat, the apple completely hides the face. Invisible Rougou is a gash of the same theme. In the same year, "Other Great War of the Exterior Wall" (La · Grande Guerre Façades, 1964), other paintings, people standing on the side wall overlooking the sea front (like a child of a man), it is a woman who wears an umbrella The face is covered with flowers. In a similar image, there is Apple, not a bird covered with male and female faces
The human child is known for his apple on the head of a man skilfully wearing a suit. Many people who like this picture do not actually understand this and are enjoying the surroundings, but "the Son of Man" is actually a real surrealist of Magrit himself, his most famous self-portrait Description Mystery René Magritte's "Man of Man" is the most amazing piece of Belgian innovator's career founded in 1964. Initial work 89 cm (35 inches x 45.67 inches) x Impressive 116 cm standing, typical of the entire canvas discovered in the 20 th century. Sadly, the human child is now a civilian It enjoys high appreciation and importance in the whole of Europe of the surrealist movement, but it is rare for your own opportunities, meaning that And I own it.
