Summary

Egon Schiele (1890-1917) ranks among the most influential painters to emerge from the cultural ferment of turn-of-the-century Vienna. Now back in print, this internationally successful volume is enhanced with 32 pages of new material, including more than 200 new catalogue raisonne entries, making it the most comprehensive book on the artist ever published. Jane Kallir, the ranking Schiele scholar, combines a copiously illustrated biography of the artist with the catalogue raisonne, which now encompasses more than 3,275 works. A must for serious scholars and collectors, this definitive work also includes an extensive bibliography, a list of exhibitions, concordances, and details on provenance, signature styles, and materials used by the artist.
