If you're a lover of surrealist art, you've probably heard of "The Son of Man by René Magritte"—one of the most iconic and thought-provoking paintings of the 20th century. At Minh Anh Art Gallery, we bring this enigmatic masterpiece to life through our expertly crafted reproduction, capturing the spirit and symbolism that make Magritte’s work unforgettable.
Painted in 1964, The Son of Man is a self-portrait by Belgian surrealist René Magritte. It depicts a man in a bowler hat, standing against a low sea wall with a cloudy sky behind him. His face is obscured by a hovering green apple, teasing the viewer with hidden meaning and the allure of mystery.
Magritte’s intention was to challenge viewers’ perceptions of reality. By hiding the face of the subject, he invites us to look deeper, beyond the visible. The apple becomes both a barrier and an invitation—commonplace, yet strangely powerful. The painting speaks to the human condition, identity, and the things we choose to reveal or conceal.
At Minh Anh Art Gallery, we recreate this surrealist icon with exceptional care. Every brushstroke is designed to reflect the mystery and mood of Magritte’s vision. Our skilled artists hand-paint each reproduction using high-quality oil paints on canvas—no shortcuts, no printing.
Whether you’re decorating a modern apartment or curating an art-themed café, The Son of Man adds a sophisticated touch that sparks conversation and admiration.

Magritte once said:
“Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see.”
This idea is at the core of The Son of Man. The painting asks questions rather than offering answers. Is the apple a reference to temptation, like in the story of Adam and Eve? Or is it a mask, shielding the true identity of the man beneath the hat?
Owning this painting is more than decoration—it’s a daily reminder to look deeper and question everything.
