"Son of Man" is also a
moderately-
well-known painting by
Rene Magritte. You may know it, just not
by name -- it's the one with the man in a
suit, wearing a
bowler hat, whose
facial features are completely
obscured by an
improbably large
green apple (it's also known as "
Man with Bowler Hat"). The
background is a low
wall, behind which is a blue
expanse (the
sea?) and a
darkly-
clouded sky, which looks as though a
storm is on the way.
Most people now know this painting, if at all, from the modern remake of The Thomas Crown Affair, in which it plays a key role. TCA is a fairly good movie (at least the modern one -- I can't speak to the original), and the twists at the end are delightful. Go rent it.
