Self Portrait Frank Auerbach (2026) Original Acrylic Painting by Gerard Boersma

This 20 x 20 cm piece shows a man enjoying a self portrait by Frank Auerbach.

His self portraits are a profound, raw exploration of identity, aging, and the physical passage of time through a rigorous "poetics of destruction" and reconstruction. Auerbach builds his images through a fierce cycle of drawing, erasing, and redrawing. Rather than seeking a flattering likeness, identity is shown as dynamic and ever-evolving rather than static.
