Sarah Buckner's intimately-scaled painting portraits a middle-aged, pipe-smoking man.
The image is based on found photographs and, as its title After Jung suggests, is less a depiction than a reimagining of the well-known Swiss psychologist and psychiatrist Carl Jung (1875-1961). A sometime collaborator of Sigmund Freud's, Jung eventually parted ways and founded a distinct school of psychoanalytic thought determined by his theory of archetypes.
