About the piece
Painted in 1913, this work by Alexej von Jawlensky exemplifies the power of German Expressionism. The face is reduced to its essential geometric forms and rendered with thick, rhythmic brushstrokes that create a mask-like, mystical presence. Its saturated colors and confident lines make it a definitive piece of early 20th-century modernism.
