Selbstbildnis im Strohhut (Self-Portrait in a Straw Hat) 1913

Lovis Corinth's 1913 etching "Selbstbildnis im Strohhut" (Self-Portrait in a Straw Hat) is a powerful and intimate depiction of the artist. Corinth, known for his expressive style and bold use of line, captures his own likeness with a sense of raw honesty. The artist's face is rendered with a sense of depth and detail, while the strong lines of his clothing and the broad brim of his hat create a striking visual contrast. This self-portrait reflects Corinth's mastery of etching, a technique that allows for a unique combination of detail and expressive mark-making.
