The Embrace 1932

"The Embrace," a 1932 lithograph by Max Weber, depicts two figures in a close embrace. The simplified forms and bold outlines of the figures are characteristic of Weber's style, which often drew inspiration from cubism and other modern art movements. This particular piece is a study in human connection and intimacy, conveyed through the figures' intertwined bodies and the powerful sense of closeness they exude. The work's small dimensions further emphasize the intensity of their interaction.
