Selbstbildnis (Self-Portrait) is a 1914 ink by Lovis Corinth, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a man with a bald head and a mustache. He’s wearing a jacket and has one hand near his chest. The lines are loose and quick, almost like a quick drawing. The artist signed it in the corner, but the name is hard to read. This is a lithograph, which means it was printed from a smooth stone or metal plate. Look up lithography to see how this printing method works.
Lovis Corinth was a German artist and writer whose mature work as a painter and printmaker realized a synthesis of impressionism and expressionism.
