"Figur mit Hut" (Figure with Hat) is a pencil drawing by German Expressionist artist Max Beckmann. The artwork depicts a figure with a hat pulled low, obscuring their eyes, and only partially revealing their face. The figure's body is depicted in a simplified form, with gestural lines suggesting movement and emotion. Beckmann’s works often depict the human figure as isolated and alienated, reflecting his experiences during World War I and the rise of Nazism. This intimate drawing is a typical example of his style, characterized by bold lines and expressive strokes, often employing distortion and exaggeration.
