Self-Portrait

Amerikanische Malerei 1913–1931, 1915

This painting depicts a man from the waist up, facing us. He has light skin with a curled white mustache and pointed beard, and gray, wavy hair. Glasses rest on his nose, attached to a long black string that appears to be tucked into his vest. The right half of his face is in shadow. He is wearing a dark suit with a white shirt and a white flower pinned to his lapel. The background is dark, and the edges of his body and clothes blur into it. The painting style is loose, with visible brushstrokes.
