Young Man with a Goatee 1907

"Young Man with a Goatee" is a 1907 oil painting by Natalia Goncharova. The painting depicts a young man, possibly a self-portrait of the artist, in a three-quarter view. The painting is notable for its bold, expressive brushwork and use of color. The subject's attire is also notable, with a pink shirt, blue trousers, and a goatee. This work reflects Goncharova's early artistic style, which incorporated elements of Cubism and Fauvism. It's a prime example of her early career and her experimentation with color and form.
