Selbstbildnis (Self-Portrait) from Deutsche Graphiker der Gegenwart (German Printmakers of Our Time)
The image is a drawing of a person's head and shoulders. The subject faces forward with a slight turn of the head to the side. The facial features are drawn with bold, dark strokes to emphasize contours, shadows, and structure. The person wears a wide-brimmed hat, and their hair is roughly textured. Minimal strokes suggest clothing around the shoulders. Signatures and inscriptions, including a date of "30 April 1920," are on the right. The background is blank.
