More about this artwork

Egon Schiele's 1915 artwork, "Edith with Striped Dress, Sitting," captures the enigmatic presence of Edith Schiele, the artist's wife. Her portrayal in this stunning piece is both intimate and striking. Schiele's signature style, which includes sharp, gestural lines and a bold, expressive use of color, vividly frames Edith’s character and form.In this portrait, Edith is seated, her body enveloped in a large, eye-catching striped dress that dominates the visual landscape. The dress, defined by bold black and white stripes, contrasts dynamically against the soft olive tones of her jacket. Her posture is elegant yet relaxed, with her hands gently resting on her lap, emphasizing a sense of quiet poise.The facial expression captured by Schiele is particularly compelling, highlighted by patches of rosy cheeks and vividly outlined eyes, portraying a deep, introspective gaze. This gaze, coupled with the slight tilt of her head, adds a layer of emotional depth and complexity to the image."Edith with Striped Dress, Sitting" not only showcases Schiele's mastery of form and color but also offers a poignant glimpse into his personal life, encapsulating his affection and artistic fascination with his wife.

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.
