About this work

This etching shows a self-portrait of a face with a hand pressed against the forehead, the fingers curling over the brow and eye. Dense, scratchy hatching models the shadows around the nose, cheek and mouth, while loose strokes suggest hair framing the head. The work is titled Selbstbildnis mit der Hand an der Stirn, by Käthe Kollwitz, dated 1910.
