SCHIELE, Egon: Prophets (Double Self-Portrait)

🖼 Prophets (Double Self-Portrait), 1911
Stuttgart, Germany

Two skeletal figures twist against darkness, their angular bodies and haunted eyes rendered in harsh, expressive lines. Schiele's double self-portrait captures early modernist anguish and psychological intensity, establishing him as a visionary of Expressionism's raw emotional power.
