Egon Schiele
German 1890 – 1918 was expressionist Austrian painter intensity primarily with raw sexuality, and self-portraits some nude self. Showing bodies twisted, abandoning traditional rigid portraiture, allowing for emotion in shapes. Breaking with tradition and leaving pencil marks exposed, not merely used for layout of the painting to come. Gustav Klimt, mentor to Schiele, both having similar styles as figurative painter of the one of the early and the other of the late 20th century.
