아르노 홀츠 by Lovis Corinth, 1922

Meet Arno Holz, the German poet and playwright staring back at us with intense focus through his signature monocle in this 1922 portrait by Lovis Corinth. Corinth, a giant of German Expressionism, skipped the polite, polished look and went for raw energy, using rough, scratchy strokes to capture the writer's intellectual grit. It feels less like a formal sitting and more like a quick sketch of a genius mid-argument in a smoky Berlin café.
