"Selbstbildnis Mit Griffel" (Self-Portrait with Stylus) is a notable work by the German painter Max Beckmann, created in 1918. Beckmann, a prominent figure in the Expressionist movement, is renowned for his intense and often introspective self-portraits, which provide a window into his complex psyche and the turbulent times in which he lived. This particular self-portrait is emblematic of Beckmann's style, characterized by bold lines, stark contrasts, and a profound sense of psychological depth.

The painting was created during a pivotal period in Beckmann's life, shortly after his discharge from military service in World War I. The war had a profound impact on Beckmann, both personally and artistically, leading to a mental breakdown and a subsequent shift in his artistic approach. "Selbstbildnis Mit Griffel" reflects this transformation, showcasing a more introspective and somber tone compared to his earlier works.

In the portrait, Beckmann depicts himself with a stylus in hand, a symbol of his role as an artist and a creator. His gaze is direct and penetrating, engaging the viewer with an intensity that suggests both confidence and vulnerability. The use of the stylus, rather than a traditional brush or pencil, may also imply a deeper connection to the act of drawing and the foundational aspects of his craft.

The composition of "Selbstbildnis Mit Griffel" is marked by its strong, angular lines and the use of chiaroscuro to create a dramatic interplay of light and shadow. This technique not only adds to the visual impact of the work but also enhances the emotional resonance, highlighting the inner turmoil and resilience of the artist.

"Selbstbildnis Mit Griffel" is housed in the collection of the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany, where it continues to be a significant piece within the museum's extensive collection of modern art. The painting remains a powerful testament to Beckmann's enduring legacy and his ability to convey the complexities of the human condition through his art.
