SCHIELE, Egon: Portrait of Arthur Roessler

🖼 Portrait of Arthur Roessler, 1910
Wien, Austria

Jagged lines and sallow flesh tones construct a gaunt, psychologically intense portrait rendered in Schiele's characteristic Expressionist style. Roessler, a crucial art critic and Schiele patron, emerges as both vulnerable and penetrating, capturing the artist's revolutionary approach to psychological portraiture in early 20th-century Vienna.
