Saviour's Face: Distant King - Buddha II 1921

"Saviour's Face: Distant King - Buddha II," created in 1921 by Russian-born artist Alexej von Jawlensky, is a striking example of the artist's distinctive style. The painting, rendered in oil on canvas, focuses on a stylized face, emphasizing the features through bold lines and simplified forms. Jawlensky's use of vivid colors, especially the contrasting red, yellow, and green hues, adds to the mystical and symbolic nature of the portrait. This painting, while depicting a singular face, evokes a sense of universal spirituality and connection to a higher power.
