More about this artwork

Exploring the vibrant expressionistic style of Alexej von Jawlensky, "Head of a Youth" illustrates a striking portrait filled with emotional depth and artistic intensity. Created in 1911, this artwork is a testament to Jawlensky's exploration of the human face as a window to the soul.The painting captures the profile of a youthful figure through bold, dramatic brush strokes and a rich palette of blues, greens, pinks, and purples. The use of color is not just ornamental but evocative, dissecting the subject's features and expressions into fragments of emotional resonance. Jawlensky's technique emphasizes the contours of the face and the piercing gaze that seems to engage viewers directly, inviting them to ponder the thoughts and feelings of the depicted youth.This piece stands as a vibrant example of early 20th-century Expressionism, where artists moved away from direct representation to convey deeper psychological truths. "Head of a Youth" is not just a portrait but a dialogue in color and form, emphasizing the power of art to transcend the visible and touch upon the profound experiences of human life.
