Original Description
Lovis Corinth’s Selbstbildnis (Self-Portrait), 1920 is a hauntingly introspective work that captures the artist’s raw emotional and physical state in his later years. Painted during a period of personal struggle following a stroke, the piece exemplifies Corinth’s shift from the fluid Impressionism of his early career to a more expressive, almost brutal honesty. The thick, agitated brushstrokes and somber, earthy palette convey vulnerability and resilience, with the artist’s gaze piercing yet weary. This self-portrait stands as a pivotal work in German Expressionism, bridging the emotional intensity of the movement with Corinth’s mastery of traditional techniques. Its unflinching portrayal of aging and mortality marks it as one of Corinth’s most poignant contributions to modern art, reflecting both his personal turmoil and the broader existential anxieties of post-WWI Europe.
For display, this powerful work demands a space that honors its emotional weight and artistic significance. Ideal for a private study, a minimalist gallery wall, or a corporate office seeking depth, it pairs well with dark walnut or matte black frames to enhance its rich, moody tones. Position it in subdued, indirect lighting to accentuate its textured brushwork without overwhelming its dark palette. Opt for neutral, warm-walled backdrops—deep grays or muted ochres—to create harmony, avoiding bright or busy environments. A medium to large size (around 24x30 inches or similar) ensures visibility without dominating the room. Complement it with modern sculptural pieces or clean-lined furniture to balance its expressive rawness, making it a conversation-starting focal point that elevates any intellectual or creative space.
