More about this artwork

Description: Egon Schiele's 1913 artwork "Grete Wolf" unveils the intense expressivity that hallmark's Schiele's distinct style. This drawing features an intriguing portrait of a woman, possibly Grete Wolf, depicted with dynamic, bold strokes that suggest rather than delineate her features. The central figure has her face turned sideways, and it is captured in a profile view, intensifying the sense of introspection or contemplation.Schiele's use of loose, flowing lines for her hair contrasts sharply with the more defined and darker strokes that suggest the contours of her face and clothing. The background, minimalist and seemingly tumultuous with scribbled lines, contributes to the focus on the subject. The combination of detail and abstraction invites viewers to contemplate the emotional state and personality of Grete.This artwork serves as a remarkable example of Schiele's ability to convey psychological depth and the complexities of human emotion through his unique figurative language. It reflects not only the artistic innovations of the early 20th century but also provides a personal, intimate look at its subject.

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.
