Description

The Austrian painter Egon Schiele (1890-1918) was a major figure in the birth of modern art. His uncompromising style of expression gave form to the anxieties and insecurities that beset Western culture at the turn of the century. In this beautifully illustrated book Simon Wilson discusses Schiele's role in the development of Expressionism and his vision of the artist in society.
