This etching by Thomas Schütte from the Sophie series presents a portrait rendered in bold red lines and forms. The image appears both direct and fragile: the figure’s head is covered with a scarf, accented by dots and fine details. The face looks out frontally. Energetic, almost sketch-like strokes bring a sense of immediacy and tension to the work, while the restrained use of red and white focuses all attention on the presence of the face.

About Thomas Schütte

Thomas Schütte (born 1954 in Oldenburg, Germany) is one of the most influential contemporary German artists. Trained at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Gerhard Richter and Benjamin Buchloh, his practice spans sculpture, drawing, architecture, and printmaking. His etchings and aquatints reflect the same interest in form and irony found in his larger works and have been exhibited at MoMA New York, the Reina Sofía Madrid, and the Fondation Beyeler Basel.

About Etching

Originating in medieval Europe, etching became one of the most important printmaking techniques of the old masters. Using acid to bite designs into metal plates, artists achieved remarkable detail and expression.
