I've only learnt of this picture recently.
I've fallen so madly in love with it that I can't put into words why I love it so much.

Die Tagebücher von Max Beckmann (1903 bis 1950) sind 75 Jahre nach seinem Tod nun hier online zu sehen und zu lesen.

Darin sind teilweise auch Skizzen enthalten. Und ganz wunderbar: die Texte sind transkribiert, man muss also die alte Schreibschrift nicht lesen können.

Alle Tagebücher nach Jahren, Monaten, Tagen sortiert - was für eine Entdeckung...

"Self Portrait with Champagne Glass," Max Beckmann, 1919.

Beckmann (1884-1950) was a German artist, printmaker, sculptor, and writer, commonly associated with the Expressionist style although he mostly identified with the New Objectivity movement, related to Expressionism but rejecting its introverted emotionalism. He was a big success in Weimar Germany, but his work was judged "degenerate" by the Nazis and it was removed from museums. He fled to Amsterdam, and then to the US upon receiving a professorship at Washington University in St. Louis.

Well-read in psychology and philosophy, his art often showed a quest for the Self, so he did a lot of self-portraits. While on the surface this shows him as an elegant dandy, in a reflection of Dutch Golden Age painters showing jolly drinkers, here he shows himself looking unhealthy, with a skull-like face and strange pallor, and his body almost twisted and distorted. The cartoonish laughing man in the background is almost sinister and disturbing. It's a strange view, perhaps showing a sense of the decadence of the Weimar republic and perhaps a sense of the growing fascist presence.

From the Städel Museum, Frankfurt.
