The Passenger on board a car
A detailed, hyper-realistic, high-contrast, expressionistic oil painting by Otto Dix depicting a young, clean-shaven man with short, slicked-back dark hair and a light beard, seen from the waist up. He is seated in the passenger seat of an old-fashioned car, looking towards the viewer with a slight smirk. The man wears a light blue suit jacket over a white collared shirt. Sunlight streams in from the side, illuminating the right side of his face and parts of his suit in a bright, almost neon yellow, creating strong shadows and highlights. The background is visible through the car window, showing a clear blue sky with fluffy white clouds, and a distant, empty road lined with buildings. The car's interior is visible, with a reddish-brown wooden steering wheel, part of the dashboard, and an orange-red seat beside him. The painting uses a thick impasto technique, with visible brushstrokes and a slightly grainy texture. The colors are rich and vibrant, with a dominant palette of yellows, blues, reds, and oranges. The overall style is reminiscent of Art Deco and Neo-Objectivity.
