"Selbstbildnis mit Strick um den Hals" (Self-Portrait with a Rope Around the Neck) is a notable painting by the German artist Lovis Corinth, created in 1923. Corinth, a prominent figure in the German Impressionist movement, is known for his dynamic brushwork and expressive use of color. This self-portrait is particularly significant as it reflects a period of personal and artistic transformation for the artist.

In this work, Corinth presents himself with a rope loosely draped around his neck, a powerful and somewhat unsettling image that has sparked various interpretations. Some art historians suggest that the rope symbolizes the artist's confrontation with mortality and the struggles he faced after suffering a stroke in 1911, which left him partially paralyzed. This event marked a turning point in Corinth's life and work, leading to a more introspective and expressive style.

The painting is characterized by its bold, vigorous brushstrokes and a vivid color palette, typical of Corinth's later works. The background is rendered in a loose, almost abstract manner, drawing attention to the intense expression on the artist's face. His eyes, filled with a mixture of defiance and vulnerability, engage the viewer directly, creating a sense of immediacy and emotional depth.

"Selbstbildnis mit Strick um den Hals" is often seen as a reflection of Corinth's resilience and determination to continue his artistic journey despite physical limitations. It also exemplifies his ability to convey complex psychological states through portraiture. The painting is housed in the collection of the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich, where it continues to be a subject of study and admiration.

Corinth's self-portraits are an essential part of his oeuvre, offering insights into his evolving self-perception and artistic philosophy. This particular work stands out for its raw emotional power and the way it encapsulates the artist's confrontation with his own vulnerabilities and strengths.
