Lovis Corinth's "Selbstbildnis" (Self-Portrait) stands as a compelling testament to the artist's introspective exploration and technical prowess. Corinth, born Franz Heinrich Louis Corinth on July 21, 1858, in Tapiau, East Prussia (now Gvardeysk, Russia), was a pivotal figure in the transition from Impressionism to Expressionism in German art. His self-portraits, in particular, offer a profound insight into his evolving self-perception and artistic journey.

"Selbstbildnis" is one of many self-portraits Corinth created throughout his career, each reflecting different phases of his life and artistic development. This particular work is notable for its raw emotional intensity and masterful use of color and brushwork. Corinth's self-portraits often reveal his inner turmoil and resilience, especially following a stroke in 1911 that left him partially paralyzed. Despite this physical setback, Corinth's work continued to exhibit a vigorous and dynamic quality, underscoring his determination and adaptability.

In "Selbstbildnis," Corinth employs a bold palette and expressive brushstrokes to capture his likeness, conveying a sense of immediacy and psychological depth. The portrait is characterized by its dramatic contrasts and the artist's unflinching gaze, which seems to confront both the viewer and himself. This introspective quality is a hallmark of Corinth's later works, where he delves into themes of mortality, identity, and the human condition.

Corinth's self-portraits are not merely exercises in self-representation but are also reflective of broader artistic and existential inquiries. They serve as a mirror to his personal struggles and triumphs, as well as his relentless pursuit of artistic innovation. "Selbstbildnis" thus occupies a significant place in Corinth's oeuvre, encapsulating the essence of his artistic legacy and his profound impact on the trajectory of modern art.
