Self-portrait. Oil on board. 711x292 mm; 28x11½ inches. Circa 1980s.

This striking early work is a self-portrait by the artist and comes from the collection of his family. Steers notes Balthus, Jean-Édouard Vuillard, and Pierre Bonnard as influences on his artistic practice. Additionally, the impact of the old masters of the Northern Renaissance and Spanish Baroque is evident within the self-portrait.
