Judas (headpiece, page 59) from Georg Heym: Umbra Vitae (Georg Heym: The Shadow of Life)
The image displays bold, angular lines and contrasting shapes, forming an abstract depiction of a face. The facial features, such as the eyes and mouth, have been exaggerated with sharp lines, which blend into rectangular forms resembling crosses. The elements combine to create a visually intricate and abstract style.
