About the Item

This lithograph from the portfolio "Egon Schiele" is a reproduction of "Weiblicher Rückenackt", an original artwork realized by Egon Schiele in 1917. The portfolio, that includes 10 lithographs on Japanese paper (various sizes) representing original artworks by Egon Schiele between 1906 and 1918, is from an edition of 600 copies, printed by Reichl & Partner, Vienna 1990 and published by Siedler Wien. Signed on plate. Perfect conditions. The original artwork has been realized in pencil by Schiele. It represents the back of a female figure. Schiele's drawings and artworks have been considered artful pornography for the naked bodies and the sensuality of the poses. Egon Schiele (Tulln, 1890 – Wien, 1918) was a very famous Austrian painter and one of the most important exponents in the early XX century. His artworks are famous especially for its intensity and its sensuality; the artist produced a lot of portraits, including naked self-portraits. He can be considered one of the most important exponents of Expressionism movement for the bodies and for the expressive contour lines. In 1909, he abandoned the Academy of Fine Arts and founded the Neukunstgruppe with some friends. In 1910, he moved to a little village with the model Wally Neuzil, looking for inspiration. Schiele's work has been considered pornographic, disturbing and focused on sex: this caused some troubles for the artist during his life. In 1914, Edith Harms became his wife and his muse. She has been described in some famous artwork of the artist.

R. Layni, Zeichnungen folio, "Kneeling Female Semi-Nude" Collotype plate XII
Located in Chicago, IL
Egon Schiele (1890 – 1918), AUSTRIA “ART CANNOT BE MODERN, ART IS PRIMORDIALLY ETERNAL.” -SCHIELE Defiantly iconoclastic in life and art, Egon Schiele is esteemed for his masterful draftsmanship and precocious insight into the human condition. Part of the first wave of Austrian Modernism, he was swept away by the Viennese fascination with the tension between Life and Death (known in the works of Freud and his later interpreters as Eros and Thanatos). Life, identified with attraction, love, sexuality, and reproduction, and Death, represented by distortion, disease, repulsion, and hysteria, often appeared in the same composition, thereby suggesting the frightening life cycle of the human mind and body. Young throughout his career, Schiele universalized his childhood traumas, thriving libido, insecurities, fears, and longings. His contorted line, jarring contrasts, and flat areas of color, demonstrate an early alliance with Expressionist philosophy and artists who were relentlessly frustrated by conventionality in all its forms. Schiele’s work embodied man’s disorientation and confusion in a seemingly absurd world, a world plagued by disease and war. It continues to be astonishingly relevant today, not just because it helped define Modernism but also because it revealed the dark and immutable aspects of the human condition.
