娜娜，女性裸體
1911
Lovis Corinth captures a moment of raw, unidealized intimacy in this 1911 masterpiece. The figure, titled 'Nana' after Émile Zola’s famous courtesan character, reclines against a vibrant, patterned rug with her head thrown back in a mix of exhaustion and abandon. Unlike the smooth, porcelain skin of classical nudes, Corinth uses thick, aggressive brushstrokes to render her flesh as heavy, real, and palpable. This bold approach foreshadows his shift toward German Expressionism, a style that became even more frantic and emotional after he suffered a debilitating stroke later that same year.
