Egon Schiele. Catalogue Raisonné: Paintings, Watercolours, Drawings

By Rudolph Leopold

One of the most lavishly illustrated collections of Egon Schiele's work ever published, presented in an updated new edition.

In 1972, Austrian collector Rudolf Leopold (1925-2010) published a landmark catalog raisonn? of the work of painter Egon Schiele (1890-1918). This updated new edition introduces the next generation of art lovers to the work of one of Gustav Klimt's most talented prot?g?s, known for his arresting self-portraits, sexually charged figure drawings, and haunting industrial landscapes. In addition to the color prints of Schiele's paintings and drawings, this book provides insight into the artist's life through letters, sketches, and documents, from his adolescence as an art student in fin de si?cle Vienna to his death from flu after the close of World War I. Egon Schiele presents Schiele's paintings, watercolors, and drawings chronologically in large-format color plates, providing a comprehensive overview of the many works Schiele completed in his short life.
