One of The Expressionist’s earliest paintings, “Beauty Is Her Name” emerges from a simple play of vertical and horizontal brushstrokes layered in shifting tones. What at first appears abstract soon reveals the suggestion of an eye, a nose, and a mouth—symbolic features hidden and revealed in the rhythm of color and motion.

As an early exploration, “Beauty Is Her Name” carries both innocence and intention. The face is never fully defined, reminding us of the ways identity is masked, glimpsed, and reimagined through abstraction. A favorite from his early works, it stands as a symbolic bridge between the raw beginnings of expression and the unfolding of a lifelong artistic journey.
