Photographic portrait of Egon Schiele
Egon Schiele(1890-1918)
Egon Schiele was an Austrian painter. A protégé of Gustav Klimt, Schiele was a major figurative painter of the early 20th century.
His work is noted for its intensity and its raw sexuality, and the many self-portraits the artist produced, including naked self-portraits.
The twisted body shapes and the expressive line that characterize Schiele's paintings and drawings mark the artist as an early exponent of Expressionism.
