More about this artwork

The painting depicts a gaunt figure that appears self-conscious yet defiant in stance. This man possesses angular, almost sharp bodily features that echo vulnerability and perhaps a rough existence. Emphasized with dark, expressive lines, his ribs and collarbones are prominently defined, contributing to a feeling of emaciation. His head tilts slightly forward, with his hair messy and seemingly wind-swept to one side, adding a dynamic element to his otherwise still and raw posture. His facial expression is intense, with eyes that carry a deeply introspective, almost piercing gaze. There’s a stark contrast in the artwork, dominated by black strokes on a tan background, which accentuates his fragile and stark physical condition and possibly his psychological state.

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.
