Egon Schiele

Austrian painter Egon Schiele (1890–1918) was best known for his intense, often provocative portrayals of human figures. Schiele started his career as a student of Gustav Klimt but quickly developed his own, completely unique style marked by sharp lines, long forms and emotional depth. Though his life and career were brief, Schiele’s influence on modern art remains profound. His work continues to captivate with its raw honesty, vulnerability and fearless exploration of the human mind.
