Painted in 1906 during the summer months, the artist showcases herself as a half act adorned with an exquisite amber necklace. The oil on canvas composition measures 61.1 x 50 cm and is a testament to Modersohn-Becker's skillful brushwork. The portrait exudes a sense of mystery and contemplation, as if the artist is caught in a moment of deep reflection. Her gaze meets ours with intensity, drawing us into her inner thoughts and emotions. The choice to depict herself as a half act adds an element of theatricality to the painting, suggesting that she sees herself not only as an artist but also as a performer on life's stage. Modersohn-Becker's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the delicate rendering of her facial features to the intricate design of the amber necklace that adorns her neck. The warm hues used throughout evoke a sense of summer's golden glow, further enhancing the overall atmosphere of tranquility. This self-portrait serves as both an exploration of identity and an embodiment of artistic prowess.

As we contemplate this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, we are reminded not only of Modersohn-Becker's talent but also her enduring
