Autoportrait au squelette
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating self-portrait by Lovis Corinth, a renowned German painter from the late 19th century. In this intriguing piece, Corinth skillfully combines elements of portraiture and symbolism to create a thought-provoking composition. The artist's face dominates the canvas as he gazes directly at the viewer with an intense expression. His features are meticulously rendered, capturing both his physical likeness and inner emotions. However, what truly sets this self-portrait apart is the inclusion of a skeleton beside Corinth. The juxtaposition between life and death adds an eerie yet fascinating dimension to the artwork. Corinth's mastery of light and shadow is evident in every brushstroke, creating depth and texture throughout the painting. Behind him, we catch a glimpse of a cityscape through an open window, hinting at his surroundings without detracting attention from the central figures. This particular print captures all these intricate details beautifully while maintaining its original essence. With dimensions measuring 68x88 cm, it showcases Corinth's meticulous technique on canvas. Displayed at Staedtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich, Germany, this masterpiece continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide. Its timeless appeal transcends generations as viewers ponder over themes such as mortality and self-reflection that resonate even today. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this remarkable piece for us to appreciate its historical significance and artistic brilliance for years to come.
