Name the Artist

[vegas9302]

What was the name of the artist who,when told that one of his portraits was "ugly and distorted", replied: "Are you certain, madam, that it was my picture you were looking at and not your mirror?"

Hi Vegas
This question has appeared on quite a few occasions on this site over the past weeks - I could only suggest Henri Matisse or Edgar Degas but you will see several other suggestions, Picasso, Freud, etc.
