EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait by Lovis Corinth, titled "Self-Portrait with Hat and Coat" offers a glimpse into the artist's inner world. Painted in 1915, it showcases Corinth's candid and expressive style that greatly influenced modernist painting in Germany. The painting holds even greater significance when considering Corinth's personal journey. In 1911, he suffered a near-fatal stroke, which led him to explore his own image as a means of revealing his emotions. This particular self-portrait is regarded as one of his finest from the last decade of his life. Corinth's powerful brushstrokes capture the intensity of his gaze and the depth of his thoughts. The half-length composition portrays him wearing a hat and coat, adding an air of mystery to the piece. His distinctive moustache further enhances his identity as an artist. Notably, Corinth was not only renowned for his artistic talent but also for being actively involved in shaping German art history. From 1915 until 1925, he served as president of the Berlin Secession—a group formed against state-sponsored art—which organized its independent exhibitions. Today, this remarkable artwork can be found at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. It stands as a testament to Corinth's enduring legacy within German Expressionism and serves as an introspective window into both the artist's emotional state and early twentieth-century art movements.
