Which consummate showman of the Surrealism movement painted this youthful self-portrait near his home on Spain's Costa Brava?

Answer Salvador Dalí

Painted when he was just 17, Dalí's Self-Portrait with Raphaelesque Neck (c. 1921) reveals a young artist experimenting with different styles. The backdrop of the Cadaqués harbor, glistening in the evening light, and broad brushstrokes reflect the influence of Impressionism, while the enthusiastic color palette speaks to Matisse and Fauvism. The title, however, is an homage to his hero, Raphael.
