Notizen und kleine Skizzen (Notes and Small Sketches) [p. 22] 

This sketchbook page by German Expressionist painter Max Beckmann is filled with gestural drawings and scribbled text. "Notizen und kleine Skizzen" (Notes and Small Sketches), as the page is titled, features several sketches of figures, perhaps a quick study of the artist's artistic style. In the center of the page is a loose sketch of two figures. Beckmann is known for his expressionistic style of painting, often focusing on themes of isolation, alienation, and the human condition. This work gives us a glimpse into Beckmann's artistic process and reveals the raw and expressive nature of his work.
