Works by Max Beckmann (1884-1950), who died in 1950: they have been in the public domain in France and the European Union since 1 January 2021. Paintings, self-portraits, theatre, circus and cafe scenes, still lifes, prints (drypoints, lithographs, woodcuts) and drawings published online by the museums that hold them, each linked to its museum record. The photographs come from the museum itself when it publishes them under an open licence, otherwise from Wikimedia Commons (public domain, or a Creative Commons licence with the photographer's name). Many gallery photographs are cropped to the canvas. Only works that the museum attributes to Beckmann himself are included.
