A visitor points to a portrait on the wall and asks who it is. "Brothers and sisters have I none" says the host, "but that man's father is my father's son".
Who is in the picture?
Let start with "Brothers and sisters have I none", this simply means the host does not have any brother or sister. Agreed?
Then he said "my father's son", but remember he does not have any brother and sister, so he's father son is basically him, you agree with that? Good! So we can replace "my father's son" with "me" in that statement.
"Brothers and sisters have I none, but that man's father is me".
But the first phrase "Brothers and sisters have I none," has served it purpose so we can remove it, the statement becomes:
"but that man's father is me" simplified, it becomes "That man's father is me"

Obviously, he is talking about his own son.
