Autorretrato

Egon Schiele Austrian
1911
Not on view
Schiele fue extraordinariamente productivo durante su corta pero intensa carrera. Antes de morir de gripe a los veintiocho años creó más de trescientas pinturas y varios miles de obras sobre papel. La figura humana, representada con poderosa energía, fue el tema de la mayoría de sus obras. Los muchos autorretratos creados entre 1910 y 1918 son feroces exploraciones de su estado anímico. En este, pintado en 1911, el artista, con la mirada demenciada y los cabellos de punta, adopta una pose sugestiva del Cristo crucificado.
