Lovis Corinth, born Franz Heinrich Louis Corinth on July 21, 1858, in Tapiau, East Prussia (now Gvardeysk, Russia), was a pivotal figure in German art, particularly known for his contributions to the Impressionist and later Expressionist movements. Among his extensive oeuvre, Corinth's self-portraits, or "Selbstbildnis," stand out as significant reflections of his evolving style and personal introspection throughout his career.

Corinth's self-portraits are remarkable for their raw emotional depth and technical mastery, capturing the artist at various stages of his life. These works not only document his physical appearance but also serve as a visual diary of his psychological and emotional states. His early self-portraits exhibit the influence of academic training and the naturalistic style prevalent during his formative years. However, as Corinth's style matured, his self-portraits began to embody a more vigorous and expressive quality, particularly after his stroke in 1911, which left him partially paralyzed.

The post-stroke self-portraits are especially poignant, revealing Corinth's struggle with his physical limitations and his indomitable spirit. The brushwork in these later works becomes more dynamic and less restrained, reflecting a shift towards Expressionism. The intensity of his gaze and the often turbulent backgrounds in these portraits convey a profound sense of vulnerability and resilience.

Corinth's self-portraits are not merely exercises in self-representation but are imbued with a deeper exploration of identity, mortality, and the human condition. They offer a compelling insight into the artist's inner world and his response to the changing artistic and social landscapes of his time. Through these works, Lovis Corinth has left an indelible mark on the history of art, providing a powerful testament to the enduring human spirit.
