Self-Portrait (Selbstbildnis) 1912

Edvard Munch's 1912 "Self-Portrait (Selbstbildnis)" is a powerful example of Expressionism. The drawing depicts Munch's own visage, rendered in bold, expressive lines. The use of charcoal creates a sense of depth and texture, emphasizing the artist's intense gaze and introspective nature. This work, like much of Munch's oeuvre, explores themes of isolation, anxiety, and the human condition. Munch's self-portraits often served as a platform for introspection and a way to grapple with his own emotions and experiences.
