All auctions / Arts & Graphics / Egon Schiele - “Seated female nude 1917”
Egon Schiele: “Seated female nude, 1917”. Signed and dated in the plate. Authorized offset litho premium pearl-mat satin paper (about 290 g/m²). Condition: the work is in excellent condition. Egon Schiele was an important figurative painter from the 20th century in Austria. He produced an abundance of vibrant paintings and drawings, the vast majority of which depict the nude female form. As a protégé of Gustav Klimt, Schiele became known for his raw, psychological intensity and bold depictions of the human form. His work broke with the ornamental sensuality of the Viennese Secession and introduced a radical honesty that explored vulnerability, sexuality and the complexity of human emotions. Schiele's distinctive style is characterized by expressive line work, distorted anatomy and a striking use of color and space. His portraits and nudes, often confronting in their gaze and posture, reveal an unrestrained exploration of desire and identity. The artist's ability to capture both physical tension and psychological depth distinguishes him from his contemporaries and confirms him as a central figure in the transition from Symbolism to Expressionism. Today, Schiele's works are among the most coveted on the art market. Original drawings and paintings regularly fetch prices of several million dollars at major auction houses. Paintings such as Houses with Colorful Laundry (1914) have brought in more than 40 million dollars, while his expressive figure drawings are highly valued by collectors around the world.
