#412 Man in a Bowler Hat
Is not a prototype. That came
some years before. The title
suggests it may not be a self-
portrait though of course it is,
even though this time around 
we can't rely on the eyes to 
confirm it since they can't be 
seen — a dove covers a larger 
area than an apple. It's the tie 
that gives it away, as always
slipped slightly below that 
apex of the collar where the
shirt is buttoned. Only the tie's
color changes. The man does 
not. The bowler hat follows
what current fashion dictates.
