The Good Thief. After Durer. [Graphite pencil with a little colour pencil added] This taken from a Durer woodcut of The Crucifixion. The figure is on Christ's right, and is therefore known as 'the good thief'.

Self Hangman
Bill Boethius
19 June 2012 ·
Self Hangman [scratchboard] Done with Nietzsche's poem in mind: "Now lonely to me and thee/ Twofold in thine own knowledge/ 'Mid a hundred mirrors/ False to thyself/ 'Mid a hundred memories/ Uncertain and weary from every wound/ shivering at every frost/ Throttled in thine own noose/ Self-knower/ Self-hangman!" [Amongst Birds of Prey]
