ABSTRACT. I attempt to show how Wittgenstein's Tractatarian views on solipsism follow from a certain construal and elaboration of the picture theory of intentionality or aboutness. I do this by first reconstructing Wittgenstein's famous distinction between showing and saying in terms of the key notion of the picture theory: that aboutness is equivalent to resemblance. I interpret the distinction between showing and saying as a distinction between two different ways that facts can manifest intentionality. It is only with this construal of the distinction in hand that Wittgenstein's remarks on solipsism can be properly understood.
