EDITORS COMMENTS
Max Klinger's Self-Portrait with Fist to Face, created in 1918, is a powerful and introspective work of art that invites viewers to delve into the depths of the artist's mind. This black and white aquatint on cream wove Japanese vellum captures Klinger in a thoughtful and contemplative posture, with his head tilted and his hand resting on his chin. His direct gaze into the camera adds an air of intensity and sadness to the portrait, as if he is sharing a deeply personal and introspective moment with the viewer. Born in Saxony, Germany, in the late 19th century, Klinger was a prominent figure in the Symbolist movement. His self-portraits, characterized by their psychological depth and emotional resonance, were particularly renowned. In this work, Klinger's beard and furrowed brow add to the sense of age and wisdom, while the contrast between the light and dark areas of the print create a striking visual texture. Self-Portrait with Fist to Face is a poignant reminder of the enduring power of art to capture the human experience and convey complex emotions. As a standalone piece or as part of a larger collection, this print is sure to inspire reflection and introspection in any art enthusiast or gallery-goer.
