Description

Typical of Close's style, this image of Phil, one of the faces that he has used in other media, is composed of a series of squares that are of differing tonal intensities. For the subject property, the squares are composed of series of lines and the varying density provided the artist with tones to create the image. "Phil" is composed of the head and neck of a male figure wearing an open necked shirt looking outward at the viewer. Across the top of the grid of squares are lower case letters and down the left side are numbers.
