Original Description
In Self-Portrait (Lovis Corinth) (1914), the German Expressionist master Lovis Corinth presents a raw, introspective study of artistic identity. Painted in thick, agitated brushstrokes, the work captures the 56-year-old Corinth in a moment of defiant vulnerability—his piercing gaze meets the viewer unflinchingly, while the mottled flesh tones and restless impasto convey both physical frailty and creative vitality. Created during his post-stroke period (after 1911), when his style grew more emotionally charged, this pivotal work bridges late Impressionism and emerging Expressionism. As one of Corinth’s last self-portraits before his death in 1925, it holds significant art-historical weight as a testament to the artist’s unflinching self-scrutiny and his influence on modern German painting. The unstable, almost tremulous application of paint mirrors both his deteriorating health and his relentless artistic vigor.
For displaying Self-Portrait (Lovis Corinth) in interiors, opt for a study, library, or creative workspace where its psychological depth can spark contemplation. The painting’s earthy palette of ochres and umbers pairs beautifully with walnut wood furniture or leather accents, while its expressive texture calls for minimalist surroundings—avoid overly ornate decor to let its emotional intensity shine. A medium-to-large wall (the original measures 81 × 66 cm) with controlled natural light or directional gallery lighting will accentuate its dramatic chiaroscuro. In an office, position it opposite sleek, modernist furniture to create a striking dialectic between raw emotion and structured design, reinforcing the tension central to Corinth’s late style. A matte black or deep green matte frame would honor its introspective mood without competing with its visceral brushwork.
