Lucian Freud's arresting self-portraits provide an insight into the enigmatic artist's psyche and document his developing style

This book reproduces all of Freud's self-portraits

In 1964 Lucian Freud set his students at the Norwich College of Art an assignment: to paint naked self-

portraits and to make them 'revealing, telling, believable... really shameless'. It was advice that the artist was often to follow himself. Visceral, unflinching and often nude, Freud's self-

portraits give us an insight into the development of his style as a painter. The works provide the viewer with a constant reminder of the artist's overwhelming presence, whether he is confronting the viewer directly or only present as a shadow or in a reflection.

Essays by leading authorities - including those who knew him well - explore Freud's life and work, and analyse the importance of self-

portraiture in his practice and the intensity that he maintained when studying his own.
