Seated Girl 1910

"Seated Girl" is a 1910 painting by Egon Schiele, known for his unique style of depicting the human form with elongated limbs and angular features. The artwork showcases Schiele's fascination with the human body, particularly its vulnerability and emotional states. The subject, a young girl, is rendered with a sense of introspection and quietude, her gaze directly meeting the viewer's. The bold use of color, particularly the patterned fabric and the vibrant orange hues, contributes to a sense of both isolation and a heightened emotional intensity.
