Egon Schiele (1890-1918) was one of the most radical figures of Austrian Expressionism. A protegé of Gustav Klimt, he developed a very 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, which was cut short by the Spanish flu at only 28, Schiele produced an extraordinary amount of drawings, watercolors and paintings that have deeply shaped modern figurative art.

In the art market, works by Schiele 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 rarity, historical importance and unmistakable style form the basis for consistently strong and resilient market demand.

Egon produced an abundance of vibrant paintings and drawings, the overwhelming majority of which depict the naked female form. Schiele often painted his subjects as the woman in the piece "Knielende, half-naked woman bending to the left" (kneeling, half-dressed, and in a revealing pose), emphasizing women's sexuality in a time of strict oppression of women.
