광기 by Emil Rudolf Weiss, 1898

Created in 1898, this striking illustration titled 'Irrsinn' (German for 'Madness') plunges the viewer into a psychological drama. Two figures, cloaked in heavy black shadows, huddle on a bench while the world around them swirls with dark clouds and stark, leafless trees. The high-contrast style emphasizes the distortion in their faces, which look anxious and almost skeletal, as if they are sharing a terrifying secret or a shared delusion. This piece captures the moody, introspective side of the Art Nouveau movement, moving away from typical floral decorations to explore the darker, more expressive corners of the human mind.
