Head of a Woman, 1912
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait that showcases the artistic brilliance of Alexei von Javlensky. This fine art print, found in the collection of the Staatliche Museen in Berlin, captures the essence of beauty and melancholy with its vibrant colors and delicate brushstrokes. The young woman depicted exudes both tenderness and sadness, her expressionism reflecting gloomy thoughts and inner turmoil. Javlensky's mastery lies in his ability to convey complex emotions through his use of light and colorfulness. As part of the Russian avant-garde movement, Javlensky was known for breaking boundaries with his unconventional approach to art. "Head of a Woman" epitomizes this spirit by challenging traditional notions of portraiture. The artist's bold use of oil on cardboard adds an element of rawness to the piece, enhancing its emotional impact. This painting also carries historical significance as it was created during a time when many artists faced persecution for their innovative styles. Labeled as degenerate art by Nazi Germany later on, Javlensky's work stands as a testament to the power and resilience of expressionism. In this print, we witness not just a lady but also poetry captured on canvas—a glimpse into the depths of human experience. It serves as a reminder that even amidst loneliness and despair, there is still beauty to be found within our fragile existence.
