MODERSOHN-BECKER, Paula: Mädchenakt mit schwarzem Hut

Soft brushwork renders a young nude figure wearing only a black hat, seated against muted earth tones. This intimate portrait challenged early-twentieth-century conventions by depicting female sexuality with psychological depth rather than decorative appeal, establishing Modersohn-Becker as a modernist pioneer.
