About this work

Description

A painting in Rita Simon's Traditional Massive style, depicting a male figure standing. Rita Simon stated that the patient, "was concerned about whether he was a man or a woman, the hand is overcompensating. He was not a patient, he just had a problem of sexual identity. A general adolescent phase, all normal".

The title has been taken from notes made during conversations between Rita Simon and Wellcome staff between 1995 and 1997.

The date has been taken from other items in the section.
