More about this artwork

The painting depicts a male nude figure captured from behind, his body largely angled away from the viewer but with his head turned to glance over his shoulder. The pose is dynamic, suggesting movement or the process of partially rising. His form and muscles are accentuated through vibrant slashes of color—yellows, greens, oranges, and hints of red—juxtaposed with sketched details that hint at the anatomy beneath the skin. The figure's left arm stretches upward, aligning with the vertical composition, while his right arm extends out of the frame, enhancing the sense of motion and off-balance tension. The background is minimally detailed, a plain pale beige, focusing all attention on the boldly colored, expressive rendition of the human form.

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.
