The Blond Painter Stirner

About this work

This painting shows a man's head and shoulders, looking to the right. He has a long face, a mustache, and a swirl of hair on his forehead. His eyes are blue. He's wearing a dark shirt or robe. Behind him is a dark background with a curved line above his head. The man's face is carved in wood, with bold lines and flat areas of color. The artist used a woodcut technique to create the image, with some parts wiped with a monotype to add texture and interest.
