Self-Portrait (Selbstporträt)

Paul Gangolf

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a sketch of a person's head and shoulders. The person is facing partially towards the viewer with their head turned slightly to one side. Features such as the eyes, nose, and lips are emphasized with angular lines and sharp contours. The person's short, receding hair is visible, and they are wearing a high-collared garment. There are no visible jewelry or objects in their hands. The background is plain, with a lightly sketched texture.
