Self-portrait 1917

Gustav Schraegle's 1917 "Self-Portrait" depicts the artist in a close-up view. The work, crafted with a loose and expressive line, captures Schraegle's features with a sense of immediacy. The artist's signature, visible in the lower right corner, adds a personal touch to this self-reflective piece. Currently housed in the Städel Museum, the drawing exemplifies Schraegle's mastery of line and his ability to convey a sense of character through minimal means. "Self-Portrait" is a powerful example of self-representation in art, showcasing Schraegle's artistic vision and personal identity.
