1906, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Self-Portrait as a Standing Nude [Selbstbildnis als stehender Akt] -- Albertinum (Dresden)

From the museum label: Modersohn-Becker is considered an important pioneer of Expressionism in Germany, and her pronounced self-reflection is considered extremely modern. At the same time, she consciously referenced the Old Masters and also greatly appreciated the seemingly contradictory art of her male contemporaries, such as Arnold Böcklin and Oskar Zwintscher.
