"Dancing Couples" is a 1921 pencil drawing by German Expressionist painter Max Beckmann. The drawing, currently housed in the Städel Museum, depicts a chaotic scene of dancing couples in gestural, sketchy lines. The figures are stylized and exaggerated, showcasing Beckmann's signature approach to representing human emotion and movement. This drawing offers a glimpse into the artist's expressive style, characterized by angular lines, bold strokes, and a focus on the psychological intensity of his subjects.
