More about this artwork
The artwork depicts an ancient bust, skillfully rendered in pencil with a nuanced use of shading and texture that conveys a palpable sense of volume and contour. The subject is a figure characterized by classical beauty, likely female, with serene and refined features. Her hair is intricately styled, cascading in carefully drawn waves and curls that enhance her elegant profile. The bust is adorned with what appears to be a draped garment or robe that loosely enfolds the shoulders, adding a subtle suggestion of grace and status. The artist's strokes capture the smoothness of the facial features contrasted against the more textured hair and fabric, giving the impression of a high level of craftsmanship in the sculpture being depicted.

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.
