Geabstraheerd gezicht 1923

"Geabstraheerd gezicht" (1923) is a charcoal drawing by Erich Wichmann, a German artist known for his Expressionist style. This small work, measuring only 186 mm by 105 mm, depicts a simplified, abstract face in profile. The drawing’s expressive lines and gestural marks convey a sense of emotion and immediacy. The subject matter and style of "Geabstraheerd gezicht" are characteristic of Wichmann's work, which often focused on the human figure and explored themes of psychology and inner life. The drawing's abstract approach reflects the influence of Expressionism, a movement that emphasized subjective expression and emotional intensity.
