Mädchen im Korsett (Girl in a Corset)

About this work

This painting shows a young woman sitting down, wearing a corset. She has her eyes closed and her head tilted back, with her hands holding a fan in front of her chest. The background is dark and shadowy. The woman's face is pale, and her hair is dark and curly. She is wearing a dark dress with a low neckline, and her corset is visible underneath. The overall mood of the painting is somber and introspective. The artist, Lovis Corinth, used lithography to create this hand-colored print.
