Girl 1918

Egon Schiele's "Girl" is a poignant and introspective drawing created in 1918, the year of the artist's tragic death. Schiele's signature style is evident in the elongated limbs and expressive lines that define the figure. The subject, depicted in a nude and vulnerable pose, exudes an air of melancholic contemplation, perhaps reflecting the artist's own anxieties. The use of charcoal on paper emphasizes the stark simplicity and emotional intensity of the composition.
