The Truth was Revealed 1913

"The Truth Was Revealed" is a 1913 painting by Egon Schiele. The artwork depicts two figures, likely a man and a woman, standing close together in a passionate embrace. Schiele's signature style is evident in the elongated figures and bold, expressive brushstrokes. The painting's vibrant colors, particularly the contrasting red and orange tones, create a sense of intensity and raw emotion. The distorted figures and dramatic composition highlight Schiele's interest in exploring the complexities of human relationships and the raw emotions of the human condition. This painting exemplifies the expressionist movement, which emphasized subjective experiences and emotional intensity over objective representation.
