EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait by Paula Modersohn-Becker, painted on her sixth wedding anniversary in 1906, offers a glimpse into the artist's inner world. The oil on canvas print showcases Modersohn-Becker's raw and unapologetic exploration of self-expression. In this striking composition, the German expressionist painter presents herself with fearless nakedness. Her bare breasts are proudly displayed, challenging societal norms and embracing her own femininity. With a direct gaze that pierces through the canvas, she invites viewers to witness her vulnerability and strength. Modersohn-Becker stands confidently in three-quarter length view, capturing her figure with bold brushstrokes that emphasize both form and emotion. A delicate necklace adorns her neck, adding a touch of elegance amidst the rawness of her portrayal. As one of the pioneering figures in modernist art movements of the early 20th century, Modersohn-Becker fearlessly pushed boundaries with each stroke of paint. This self-portrait exemplifies her commitment to breaking away from traditional artistic conventions and embracing personal authenticity. Housed at the Paula Modersohn-Becker Museum in Bremen, Germany, this print captures not only an iconic work but also pays homage to an extraordinary female artist who left an indelible mark on art history.
