Levitation

ID: #3817 | Modern artists | People

The painting depicts two twisted figures in an expressive style. The main figure is erect, with prominent features, and appears to be raising his hand in a dramatic gesture. The second, shorter figure is similarly dynamic. The background consists of an abstract landscape with hints of flowers and other elements that give the impression of agitation and restlessness. The colours are earthy beiges, browns and ochres with strong outlines and patches.

Egon Schiele (1890-1918). Unconventional Viennese artist representing a significant milestone Viennese painting. He quickly broke away from the German movement of new art (Jugendstil) and began to paint in his typical style, with agonizing existential passion for the human body. He painted openly with reference to human sexuality (the images fit into the era when Freud was formulating his theories). Schiele’s paintings are dark, aggressive, and unusual. However, they are thoughtful, excite emotions, and comprise of fascinating drawing and composition. Schiele was tortured by existence, sexuality and the realities of life. His fame grew during his life, although it was very short: after World War I, his wife and child died to typhoid fever and Schiele died after a short time himself.
