A self-portrait by Franz Marc, the German Expressionist painter, shows the artist in folk costume, gazing off to the right. The loose brushwork and muted colours contribute to the painting's sense of immediacy.
This self-portrait by Franz Marc (1880-1916), the German Expressionist painter and printmaker, presents the artist in a three-quarter view, gazing off to the right. Marc is attired in what appears to be traditional or folk costume, including a wide-brimmed black hat, a high white collar, and a dark blue coat with light blue and gold trim. The brushwork is loose and expressive, with visible strokes that contribute to the painting's sense of immediacy. The background is a wash of muted blues and greens, suggesting an outdoor setting, possibly a forest or field. Marc was a founder of Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), a group of Expressionist artists who sought to express spiritual truths through their art. His work is characterised by its use of bold colour and simplified forms, often depicting animals as symbols of purity and innocence. This self-portrait, while less overtly symbolic than some of his animal paintings, shares the same expressive intensity and interest in conveying inner states of mind. The painting offers a glimpse into the artist's persona and his connection to the natural world.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
