Self PortaitSelf PortaitThis is one of my favorite

paintings my Moholy-Nagy. I like the way he used his lines to add detail. He didn’t fully complete the coloring of the picture and made it have a quick sketch look. I like these style paintings better than his abstract art, because I feel like this is where he shines most.
