<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 9547513, member: 37&quot;]I try to get to the Art Institute in Chicago as much as I can.&nbsp; On one trip, they had a display of Ivan Albrights self-portraits done monthly over a period of a couple years as he was approaching death.&nbsp; As you can expect, his skill and appearance deteriorated markedly over this time period.&nbsp; It was a moving exhibit.&nbsp; Albright was known for his grotesque meticulous depictions of the human body but, in the end, was reduced to depiction in an almost child-like manner. </p><p><br /></p><p>Albright painted himself dozens of times over the years.&nbsp; This is an example of one of his earlier self-portraits in the final series.</p><p><img src="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS15BhTeMQF4IXSZlWa6XH-HQAN4VA106fFNq_yuX64QAidCHnYyeOsVoZzl7mH8q1pTD4&amp;usqp=CAU" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>This is one of his last.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]454896[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
