Dancer in the Mirror 1923

"Dancer in the Mirror" is a woodcut by German Expressionist artist Max Pechstein created in 1923. The composition features a stylized dancer with bold, angular forms, reminiscent of the movement's emphasis on emotional expression and simplified shapes. The vivid color palette of reds, yellows, and blues amplifies the dramatic pose, while the background suggests a stage setting. The stark contrast between the dancer and a group of onlookers at the bottom further highlights the performer's captivating presence. This artwork exemplifies the dynamic and expressive nature of German Expressionism.
