Autist Algy

• artist

• autist: self-admirer, narcissist

• Algy: probably a reference to Algernon Charles Swinburne, a poet and critic who was closely associated with painters, especially James McNeil Whistler, Dante Gabriel Rossetti and the Pre-Raphaelites; infamous for his obsessions with sadomasochism and lesbianism

Commentary

The word autist here probably does not refer to the psychological concept of "autism," whose name was not coined until 1938 and even then was known only among psychologists.
