Lovis Corinth was
a German artist and writer whose mature work as a painter and printmaker
realized a synthesis of impressionism and expressionism. Corinth studied in
Paris and Munich, joined the Berlin Secession group, later succeeding Max
Liebermann as the group's president. His early work was naturalistic in
approach. Corinth was initially antagonistic towards the expressionist
movement, but after a stroke in 1911 his style loosened and took on many
expressionistic qualities. His use of color became more vibrant, and he created
portraits and landscapes of extraordinary vitality and power. Corinth's subject
matter also included nudes and biblical scenes. He was quite prolific, and in
the last 15 years of his life he produced more than 900 graphic works,
including 60 self-portraits. The landscapes he created between 1919 and 1925 are
perhaps the most desirable images of his entire graphic oeuvre. He painted
numerous self-portraits, and made a habit of painting one every year on his
birthday as a means of self-examination. In many of his self-portraits he
assumed guises such as an armored knight (The Victor, 1910), or Samson (The
Blinded Samson, 1912). A self-portrait of 1924 is in the Museum of Modern Art,
New York City.
