Self-portrait with hands to the chest - Egon Schiele
Painted in watercolor and charcoal, this expressionnist self-portrait of Egon Schiele focuses on his head and hands. The rest of his body is a simple sketch without detail. Very inclined to introspection and the search for his deepest self, the artist represents himself without taboos, as he sees himself, with a certain femininity in the position of his hands. The expression of his face, casual, even shameless, seems to show his indifference towards the judgments that one could make on him.
