Egon Schiele

Egon Leo Adolf Ludwig Schiele (German: ['e?g?n '?i?l?]; 12 June 1890 – 31 October 1918) was an Austrian Expressionist painter.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.

Gustav Klimt, a figurative painter of the early 20th century, was a mentor to Schiele.
