Egon Schiele (1890-1918) was one of the most radical figures of Austrian Expressionism. A protege of Gustav Klimt, he developed a highly personal visual language characterized by angular lines, distorted anatomy, raw erotics, and unwavering psychological intensity. His work decisively broke with academic ideals of beauty and instead focused on vulnerability, sexuality, and existential tension.

Despite his short life, cut short by the Spanish flu at only 28, Schiele produced an extraordinary amount of drawings, watercolors, and paintings that deeply shaped modern figuration.

In the art market, Schiele’s works are among the most sought-after from the early 20th century. Large oil paintings regularly fetch tens of millions of euros at auction, while works on paper, especially signed, well-preserved drawings and watercolors, are also highly valued and often reach seven-figure prices. His scarcity, historical importance, and unmistakable style form the basis for a consistently strong and resilient market demand.

This artwork shows a woman in a seated pose, using a limited color palette and sharp lines. Egon Schiele's woman, Edith, served as the model for this work.
