Sylvia Von Hatten by Otto Dix

SSylvia Von Hatten by Otto Dix A German poet/journalist I could only find a single poem in Polish Translated from Polish to English by means of burying in corpses in mental corpses not organic ones in corpses of thoughts I have for you taming silence over the coffin Otto Dix said to her, "I must paint you! I simply must! ... You are representative of an entire epoch!____ 'So, you want to paint my lacklustre eyes, my ornate ears, my long nose, my thin lips; you want to paint my long hands, my short legs, my big feet—things which can only scare people off and delight no-one?____ You have brilliantly characterized yourself, and all that will lead to a portrait representative of an epoch concerned not with the outward beauty of a woman but rather with her psychological condition." From Wikipedia.
