Two Heads (Zwei Madchenkopfe) c. 1927

"Two Heads" (Zwei Madchenkopfe) is a 1927 etching by German artist Karl Hofer (1878-1955). The artwork depicts two female heads in profile, their faces almost touching. The simplified lines and minimal detail are characteristic of Expressionist art, a movement that emerged in Germany in the early 20th century. Hofer's etching explores the theme of human connection through the intimate proximity of the two figures, while the subtle distortions and bold lines convey a sense of emotion and psychological depth.
