The artwork, titled “Self-Portrait with Fur Cap,” was created by Otto Dix in 1947. This self-portrait, belonging to the Expressionism art movement, is currently held in a private collection.
The artwork features Otto Dix himself, depicted in a fur cap, with a textured, warm coat made of animal hide, emphasizing rich, earthy tones. The background illustrates a somber winter scene, with barren trees and a muted atmosphere. The figure’s face is partially obscured by the shadow of the fur cap, lending a sense of introspection and gravity to the composition. The brushwork is dynamic and expressive, characteristic of the Expressionist style, capturing the emotional intensity and depth of the artist.
