Female Back View Nude
1998
Egon Schiele was the wild child of Viennese Expressionism, famous for raw nudes that shocked polite society in the early 20th century. Here, he sketches a female figure from behind using jagged, nervous lines that capture the body's tension rather than perfect anatomy. He didn't care about beauty in the traditional sense; he wanted to show the raw, sometimes awkward energy of the human form, often using his lovers as models for these intense studies.
