1913
Lovis Corinth captures the wild, tipsy energy of a Bacchante in this energetic 1913 sketch, created just two years after a stroke nearly ended his career and pushed his style toward raw Expressionism. The nude figure throws her head back, mouth open in a shout, while balancing a cup high above her head—a classic follower of the wine god Dionysus in full celebration mode. Corinth’s loose, scratchy strokes make her body look like it's actually vibrating with movement, freezing a moment of chaotic joy on the page.
