It's a self portraint of Lucian Frieud, grandson of Sigmund, nephew of Anna, strongly influenced by Bacon, and now

astride the art world, though the most diffident of men, and considering his income from the Freud copyrights, one of the keast self-indulgent. His nudes are famous, though concentrated more on the effects of life and age (even his own mother on several occassions, but his portraints are terrific also. You might want to read the recently published memoirs of his first wife, the late Lady Caroline Blackwood, also later married to the poet Robert Lowell, for some accounts of his early adult life.

DING, DING, DING ! We Have a Winner !

 

Thanks Gryphone. Bonus points for the additional info :D

 

Honorable mention to CTDick for posting Freud's Betty Windsor. Seeing it again reminds me of Picasso's comment when told his portrait of Gertrude Stein didn't look like her. "Don't worry. It will."
