This rare self-portrait by Alberto Giacometti is based on a 1950 photograph of the artist by Irving Penn.
.
Giacometti rarely depicted himself after World War II, choosing instead to capture close companions. 'To see Giacometti turn his inquisitive eye to his own likeness is a treat,’ says Vanessa Fusco, our Impressionist and Modern art specialist and Head of Sale in New York. 'It's unique within his body of work.' (@vafusco).
.
'This exceptional drawing was purchased by Elaine Graham Weitzen in 1965, and is being sold to benefit a Foundation in her name which will support emerging artists.’
