Self-portrait with Pencil
Sobre la obra
Ket suffered from a congenital heart defect and from 1930 he was obliged to find subjects close to home. In part because of this, in his relatively short lifespan he made an impressive group of about forty selfportraits. Ket paid equal attention to every detail and was famous for his slow way of working. He found it difficult to portray other people because few of them could cope with posing for him for a long time.
