Kopf (Head) 1920

"Kopf (Head)" is a woodcut by German Expressionist artist Max Kaus, created in 1920. The artwork features a simplified and geometric portrait, rendered in stark black and white. Kaus's distinctive style utilizes bold, angular lines to depict the subject's face, highlighting the intensity of the gaze and conveying a sense of emotional depth. This woodcut, like many of Kaus's works, exemplifies the Expressionist movement's emphasis on subjective expression and emotional intensity.
