Zelfportret, graverend 1911

This 1911 etching by Max Slevogt, titled *Zelfportret, graverend*, portrays the artist himself, seated in a chair and engaged in the act of engraving. The artwork's focus on the process of creation offers insight into Slevogt's artistic practice. The loose lines and suggestive shading create a sense of movement and spontaneity, capturing the essence of the artist's focused concentration as he works. The piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a valuable glimpse into the world of an influential German artist at the height of his career.
