Reclining Woman 1917

Egon Schiele's "Reclining Woman" is a striking example of his signature style. The elongated figures, angular lines, and a stark, almost skeletal portrayal of the body are hallmarks of his work. The woman's pose and the intricate details of the drapery create a sense of vulnerability and introspection. The painting, created just a year before Schiele's death, is often seen as a reflection of the artist's own sense of mortality and the beauty of the human form.
