Nicht identifizierte Skizze, Karussell? (Sketch of Merry-go-round, Perhaps) [p. 69] 1918 - 1919

This sketch by Max Beckmann, dating to 1918-19, captures the essence of his expressionistic style. Created on a lined notebook page, its faint, gestural lines suggest a merry-go-round, a symbol of amusement and fleeting joy. This informal work, likely a personal study, is typical of Beckmann's use of sketching to explore ideas and compositions. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner, adding a personal touch to this intimate drawing.
