More about this artwork

"Selbstporträt" (1913) by Egon Schiele is a striking example of the artist’s mastery in capturing the intensity and psychological depth of the human condition through minimalistic means. This self-portrait, rendered in delicate yet confident lines, embodies Schiele's unique ability to convey complex emotions with just a few strokes of his drawing instrument.In this work, the figure of Schiele is delineated with an economy of line that emphasizes his expressive facial features and dynamic pose. His gaze seems introspective and slightly troubled, a common theme in Schiele's self-portraits which often explored his own identity and emotions. The angular lines and the slight contortion of the body further intensify the sense of emotional and physical tension.This self-portrait not only showcases Schiele’s distinctive style but also his profound introspection and unfiltered approach to self-representation.

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.
