The Embrace by Egon Schiele
The Embrace (1917)

Two figures hold each other on rumpled white sheets, painted with Schiele's signature angular style and emotional intensity!
Did you know? As a teenager, Schiele went looking for Gustav Klimt, Vienna's most famous painter, and Klimt became his mentor! Klimt bought Schiele's drawings, found models for him and introduced him to people who might buy his art.
