Showing a precious talent as a child  he developed a distinctive personal style that matched his anguished obsession with sex  life and death. His nudes and self-portraits  with their unflinching honesty  are among the most intense and powerful portrayals of sexual feeling in Western art. Although he died young he produced a body of paintings  watercolours and drawings that rank him among the most original artists of the early twentieth century  and an important forerunner of the Expressionist movement.  In this book Christopher Short presents a biographical introduction and survey of Schieles art  followed by detailed commentaries on a selection of 48 male and female nudes  self-portraits  portraits  landscapes and allegorical works representing a full cross-section of the artists finest works in all media.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45914186121269,"sku":"ByrdShop_0714833932","price":62.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780714833934.jpg?v=1787339600","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/schiele-colour-library-9780714833934","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
