weibliches Gesicht (Woman's Face) [p. 25] 

Max Beckmann's "weibliches Gesicht (Woman's Face)" is a pencil drawing depicting the profile of a woman's face. Executed in a loose and expressive style, the work showcases Beckmann's signature use of line and form to convey emotion. The artist's distinctive, angular lines create a sense of intensity and depth in the subject's features, emphasizing the melancholic gaze and the subtle curve of the chin. This drawing, a glimpse into Beckmann's creative process, exemplifies the artist's exploration of human expression and the power of simple gestures.
