About the Author
Artist details
Egon Schiele (b. 1890, Tullin, Austria; d. 1918 Vienna) is now recognized as a major figure in the development of the Expressionist movement. In 1906, he enrolled in the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Vienna, but felt frustrated with the school's conservatism. He left the Akademie in 1909 to found Neukunstgruppe with several other students. In 1907, he befriended fellow artist Gustav Klimt, as well as several collectors who encouraged his work. In 1911, Schiele left Vienna and the following year he was jailed for 24 days on account of "immortality and seduction" for hanging nude portraits in his home visible to a passerby and employing young girls as models. He died at the young age of 28 on Halloween night in 1918, the victim of influenza.
