Behind his right shoulder rests a skull, symbolizing the ever-present reminder of mortality that often fuels artistic inspiration. Above him hovers a cherub, adding an ethereal touch to the composition. This image pays homage to Thoma's renowned self-portrait titled "Self Portrait with Love and Death" painted in 1875. The cigarette card album "Die Welt in Bildern" features this remarkable photograph as part of its collection. The unknown creator skillfully captured Thoma's essence as both an artist and a man deeply connected to his craft. His piercing gaze reflects determination and passion for his work while also hinting at the complexities within his soul.

This print serves as a testament to Thoma's enduring legacy as one of Germany's most celebrated painters.
