Four Trees 1917

Egon Schiele’s “Four Trees” (1917) is a striking landscape painting with an intense, almost otherworldly quality. Schiele’s signature elongated figures and stark lines are present in the stylized tree forms, which stand out against a dramatic backdrop of fiery sunset hues and dark, brooding mountains. The painting, which is housed in the Belvedere Museum in Vienna, Austria, captures the essence of Schiele's distinctive artistic vision, characterized by an exploration of existential themes and psychological depth.
