Doppelbildnis mit Skelett (Double Portrait with Skeleton) is a 1916 ink by Lovis Corinth, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows two men and a skeleton. The men are wearing suits and have short hair. The skeleton is standing behind them, looking over their shoulders. The men are looking at the viewer with serious expressions. The skeleton is also looking at the viewer, but its face is just a skull. The painting is in black and white, with lots of lines and shading. It's like a drawing, but it's made with a special tool called a drypoint. You might also like to look at the work of Corinth, Lovis.
Lovis Corinth was a German artist and writer whose mature work as a painter and printmaker realized a synthesis of impressionism and expressionism.
