"Portrait of Poet Guthmann" is a notable painting by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, a German expressionist painter and printmaker, and a founding member of the group Die Brücke ("The Bridge"). Created in 1919, this work is a prime example of Kirchner's intense and emotive style, which was characterized by bold colors, vigorous brushwork, and a departure from realistic representation.

The painting captures the likeness of a poet, believed to be Erich Heckel's friend, Hans Guthmann, who was associated with the expressionist circle. Kirchner's portrayal of Guthmann is marked by a vivid color palette and a sense of psychological depth, reflecting the artist's interest in expressing the inner emotional state of his subjects rather than their physical reality. The use of sharp lines and contrasting colors in the portrait is typical of Kirchner's approach during this period, which aimed to evoke a strong emotional response from the viewer.

"Portrait of Poet Guthmann" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. Painted shortly after World War I, during a time of upheaval and change in Germany, the work embodies the existential angst and the introspective mood that pervaded much of the art produced in the aftermath of the war. Kirchner's own experiences as a soldier and his subsequent mental health struggles are often reflected in the intensity of his post-war paintings.

The painting is part of Kirchner's broader oeuvre, which contributed to the development of Expressionism in the early 20th century. As such, "Portrait of Poet Guthmann" is an important piece within the canon of European modernist art, offering insight into the movement's evolution and its reflection of the societal shifts of the time. The work is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and exhibited as an example of Kirchner's innovative approach to portraiture and his lasting influence on modern art.
