    A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is above all a portrait of Stephen Dedalus. It is through Stephen that we see his world‚ and it is his development from sensitive child to rebellious young man that forms the plot of the novel.<br><br>There are many Stephens‚ often contradictory. He is fearful yet bold‚ insecure yet proud‚ lonely and at the same time afraid of love. One Stephen is a romantic who daydreams of swashbuckling heroes and virginal heroines. The other is a realist at home on Dublin’s

    Analysis of ‘Portrait of Mother III’ by David Hockney. David Hockney painted his mother many times after studying art at the Bradford school of art. I am not sure that this specific painting provides a story but maybe the whole group of paintings of his mother at different times and in different styles does tell a story. I think that he wanted to show how people aged and how you can paint or draw them in different styles of materials. His mother is the main focus of this series of portraits. The image

 Like all works of art. the portrait is a system of signs; it is often an ideogram of “public’ meanings condensed into the image of a human face. Roman portrait sculpture from the Republic through the late Empire-the second century BCE. to the sixth CE -constitutes what is surely the most remarkable body of portrait art ever created. Its shifting montage of abstractions from

    Q. Critically comment on the autobiographical element in the novel ‘Sons and Lovers’ supporting your argument with valid textual and critical point of view. ‘Sons and Lovers’ is among one of the most autobiographical works of English Literature.
