Artist, German, 1874 - 1930

The image displays a stylized portrayal of more than half of a person's body, focusing on their upper body and head. The person is shown in a seated position, with their body slightly turned and leaning over a table. Their facial features are depicted with exaggerated lines and angles, conveying a sense of sharpness in expression, and their hair appears dark and is rendered in loose, bold strokes. The person is unclothed and sitting with one arm resting on the table. There is a wine glass also depicted, and another face in the background. The background is filled with abstract, dark brush strokes that give a sense of depth and contrast to the bright yellow and black coloring of the image.
