About Self Portrait As Soldier
"Self Portrait As Soldier" is a famous self-portrait by the Expressionism artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. In this oft-reproduced work, a gaunt uniformed Kirchner presents his own severed arm to the viewer, an allusion to the terror of artistic impotence and, ultimately, of death. The presence of a nude female model behind him extends the metaphor to include the possibility of castration, the fear of which would be particularly powerful given Kirchner’s conflation of sexual prowess, cultural liberation, and aesthetic achievement.About the Canvas Prints
