Portrait of Dr. Haustein
1928
Schad is one of the most important figures the New Objectivist movement, though unlike many of his contemporaries, Dix, Grosz, etc., he was not vilified by the Nazis. I think when held relative to other artists in New Objectivity, Schad has a much sharper style, which was influenced by his love of certain painters, such as Raphael; yet he still manages to include a great amount of subversive and symbolic elements in his works, which makes them absolutely wonderful, often macabre, pieces.
