Description
Self-Portrait With Model (1910) by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. When I look at this painting, a pleasurable sensation of anarchy gathers in me. The image has a glorious disruptive quality about it — you might almost say an aggression — which is simultaneously stirred and soothed by its wildly optimistic colouration. The painting is of a man and woman, the artist and his model. She is sat on a chest or a box, wearing a pale blue chemise decorated in pink ribbons, the same pink that blush her cheeks. She appears to be looking at the artist askance, a look of suspicion that makes the him the true subject of the work.
