Self-portrait 1932

"Self-portrait" (1932) by Hungarian artist Istvan Farkas (1887-1944) is a striking watercolor. The artist, positioned in profile, appears contemplative, almost introspective. Farkas's use of bold lines and contrasting colors creates a sense of depth and emotion, reminiscent of Expressionist techniques. The background, rendered in warm tones, suggests a sense of place and time, while the figure, rendered in darker shades, stands out in stark contrast.
