More about this artwork

The painting displays a sinuous male figure, contorted in a dramatic and angular seated position. His form is slender, starkly outlined in Egon Schiele’s characteristic style of bold, disquieting lines. The figure’s skin is rendered in pale yellows and earth tones, with touches of red at his nipples and lips, enhancing the raw, visceral quality of the portrait. His right arm awkwardly stretches above and behind his head, grasping the left arm, which crosses behind his neck. His face is turned towards the viewer with an intense, uneasy gaze and his deep-set, dark eyes seem to penetrate. Dark tousled hair adds to the overall tortured impression of his pose.

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.
