The representation of being, in the portrait or the self-portrait, poses such questions as “who are you?” and “who am I?” In De Chirico’s oeuvre, a question also concerns the sitter’s position in space and time. By identifying the subject’s distinctive elements, the artist initiates a recognition process that sets off yet another at a deeper level: the search for an identity and the link between physiognomy, expression and being itself. De Chirico pushes his investigation well beyond the traditional topic, asking questions that, despite their remaining unsolved, bring us closer to the great mystery of existence.
In 1921, when explaining the function of the spatial set-up of the “portrait at the window”, of Renaissance origin, De Chirico writes: “That piece of world it shows us near the sitter, separated from it by a wall of visible depth, excites our mind and our thoughts, infusing the portrait - a normally rather unadventurous subject - with a sense of surprise and discovery...”
