Selbstbildnis (Self-Portrait)

Lovis Corinth

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait of a person's upper body. The person is seated, leaning slightly forward with their hands on the table. The facial features are ruggedly drawn with bold lines for the eyes, nose, and mouth. The person has short, dark hair and wears a loose-fitting top with long sleeves. The background is roughly sketched, suggesting an indoor setting. There are no visible jewelry or objects in the person's hands.
