This is a self-portrait of Peter Lely. He didn't paint very many self-portraits. In the book, Cam first grows interested in Peter when she sees this self-portrait. I'm not a big fan of mustaches, so I used my authorial power and ignored that part, but I love the rest of it. He really does look like a man who's lived through some unhappiness. I hope Peter enjoys the journey I've taken him on. I'd like to think it's one he would have picked for himself.
