Sock Affairs Son of Man Socks

Son of Man Socks

Considered a surrealist masterpiece, 1946’s “The Son of Man” is one of René Magritte’s most emblematic paintings.

Its depiction of an otherwise ordinary man wearing a bowler hat sweeps us off our feet with its obscure and mystery-filled details – what’s he hiding behind that impossibly green apple? And that dark, cloudy sky, what kind of storm is it bringing? Although beautifully and meticulously executed, and so clear in all its brushstrokes, why can’t we seem to penetrate it?

“The Son Of Man” inspired socks are our doubt-filled tribute to one of surrealism’s larger than life figures.
