Geabstraheerd gezicht met getuite lippen 1923

This small-scale drawing, titled "Geabstraheerd gezicht met getuite lippen" (Abstracted Face with Pouting Lips), was created by Erich Wichmann in 1923. The drawing features a stylized, abstracted face with expressive features, particularly prominent lips, rendered in simple lines and shading. The work showcases Wichmann's interest in exploring the human form in a simplified and expressive manner, reflecting the stylistic trends of early 20th-century German art. The inscription on the drawing, "Practical hygiene," adds an intriguing element to the artwork, hinting at a potential connection between the abstract face and a broader social commentary.
