“ Empire of light ” « I combined different concepts in "Empire of Light", namely - the night landscape and the sky in all the glory of daylight. The landscape inclines us to think about the night, the sky about the day. In my opinion, this simultaneous phenomenon of day and night has the power to surprise and enchant. And this power I call poetry ». Rene Magritte

The Son of Man (1964) is Magritte's most widely disseminated work, parodies and allusions to which are encountered so often that the image already lives separately from its creator. Initially, Rene Magritte painted the picture as a self-portrait, where the figure of a man symbolized a modern man who had lost his individuality, but remained the son of Adam, who could not resist temptations - hence the apple covering his face.
