Painter
Egon Schiele
Painted bodies with a rawness that got him briefly imprisoned. He died in the 1918 influenza pandemic at twenty-eight, three days after his pregnant wife.
Egon Leo Adolf Ludwig Schiele was an Austrian Expressionist painter. His work is noted for its intensity and its raw sexuality, and for the many self-portraits the artist produced, including nude self-portraits. The twisted body shapes and the expressive line that characterise Schiele's paintings and drawings mark the artist as an early exponent of Expressionism. Gustav Klimt, a figurative painter of the early 20th century, was a mentor to Schiele.
