More about this artwork

Egon Schiele's 1917 masterpiece, "Nude in Black Stockings," exemplifies his bold and unconventional approach to the human form. This arresting painting features a nude figure, depicted in an unusually twisted and expressive pose that highlights Schiele's fascination with the human body's natural lines and curves. The subject is rendered with striking realism and emotional intensity, characteristics that define Schiele's work. The model’s stark, almost confrontational gaze and the delicate application of color contrast with the bold black stockings, creating a dynamic and somewhat provocative composition.The rough, almost aggressive strokes convey a deep sense of vivacity and raw emotion, while the minimalist use of background focuses all attention on the figure itself, accentuating its vulnerability and isolation. This painting is a vivid example of Schiele's artistic legacy, marked by a deep exploration of self-identity and human sexuality.

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 nude 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.
