"Lesender Mönch" (Reading Monk) is a notable painting by the German artist Lovis Corinth, created in 1901. Corinth, born Franz Heinrich Louis Corinth on July 21, 1858, in Tapiau, East Prussia (now Gvardeysk, Russia), was a prominent figure in the German Impressionist movement and later became associated with the Berlin Secession. His work is characterized by a vigorous brushwork and a vivid use of color, often exploring themes of human emotion and the complexities of life.

"Lesender Mönch" depicts a monk engrossed in reading, a subject that reflects Corinth's interest in capturing moments of introspection and intellectual engagement. The painting is rendered with Corinth's signature expressive style, where the fluidity of the brushstrokes and the interplay of light and shadow create a dynamic and contemplative atmosphere. The monk's serene yet focused demeanor is highlighted by the soft, diffused light that bathes the scene, emphasizing the quietude and solemnity of the moment.

This work is a testament to Corinth's ability to blend realism with impressionistic techniques, creating a sense of immediacy and intimacy. The choice of a monk as the subject may also reflect the artist's exploration of spirituality and the human condition, themes that recur throughout his oeuvre. Corinth's fascination with the inner life of his subjects often led him to portray figures in moments of deep thought or emotional intensity, making "Lesender Mönch" a quintessential example of his artistic philosophy.

Throughout his career, Lovis Corinth's work evolved, incorporating elements of Expressionism, particularly after a stroke in 1911 that affected his motor skills but also seemed to deepen his emotional and psychological insight. "Lesender Mönch" stands as a significant piece within his body of work, illustrating his mastery of capturing the subtleties of human experience through his distinctive artistic lens.
