Autoritratto 1928

"Autoritratto" is a self-portrait painted in 1928 by German artist Julius Bissier, notable for its stark realism and contemplative mood. The painting depicts the artist in a somber pose, his hands resting on a table with a sheet of paper and a bowl. Bissier's portrait is characterized by his signature style, which features bold, simplified forms and an emphasis on light and shadow, reminiscent of the Neue Sachlichkeit movement. The work offers a glimpse into the artist's introspective personality and his artistic vision.
