Kneeling Warrior – I 1914

"Kneeling Warrior - I" is a 1914 drawing by German artist Lovis Corinth (1858-1925). The artwork depicts a nude, kneeling warrior with his hand covering his face, perhaps in a moment of despair or reflection. Corinth's powerful line work and dramatic composition create a sense of urgency and emotion, characteristic of his Expressionist style. The warrior's pose and the use of dark, expressive lines emphasize the figure's vulnerability and the weight of his experience.
