Large Primitive Head in Profile 1920 - 1921

"Large Primitive Head in Profile" is a woodcut print by Max Weber, created between 1920 and 1921. The artwork portrays a stylized human head in profile with a simplified, geometric form, characteristic of the artist's exploration of primitivism and cubism. The print's dark, bold lines and heavy shadows create a sense of weight and solemnity, reflecting a stylistic shift in Weber's work influenced by his interactions with the avant-garde in Paris. The stark contrast between light and dark in the piece further emphasizes the head's presence and contributes to its powerful impact.
