Modern Self-Portraits

Paul Gauguin and Otto Dix represented their inner states in these self-portraits that incorporate symbolism drawn from their personal interests. Dix was influenced by the writings of German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, while Gauguin drew on Polynesian culture in Tahiti where he lived at the time.
