Original Description
Lovis Corinth's Large Still Life with Figure (also known as Birthday Picture) is a vibrant and deeply personal work that blends the opulence of still life with introspective portraiture. Painted in 1915, this piece reflects Corinth's late expressive style, where bold brushwork and rich, emotive colors—hallmarks of German Expressionism—merge with the traditional genre of still life. The composition features a lavish display of flowers, fruits, and fine tableware alongside a self-portrait of the artist’s wife, Charlotte, embodying both celebration and contemplation. Created during a tumultuous period marked by Corinth's recovery from a stroke, the painting carries a sense of resilience and vitality. It stands as a pivotal work in Corinth’s oeuvre, bridging Impressionist influences and the emerging Expressionist movement, while offering a poignant glimpse into the artist’s private world.
For a home or office setting, this painting’s grand scale (118 × 153 cm) makes it a striking focal point in a spacious dining area, study, or formal lounge. Its warm, intense hues—deep reds, golds, and greens—pair beautifully with classic or eclectic interiors, especially those featuring dark wood furniture, gilt accents, or jewel-toned textiles. To harmonize with the artwork’s expressive energy, consider placing it in a well-lit alcove or above a mantle, surrounded by simpler décor to avoid visual clutter. For a modern twist, juxtapose it with minimalist furniture and metallic finishes, letting the painting’s dynamism take center stage. Smaller prints or sketches from Corinth’s oeuvre could complement the piece in an adjoining space, creating a cohesive yet layered aesthetic.
