Daring, raw, and intensely expressive, Squatting Female Nude (1910) by Egon Schiele is a striking example of his fearless approach to the human figure. Schiele’s signature jagged lines and exaggerated proportions strip away conventional ideals of beauty, replacing them with an unfiltered exploration of form, vulnerability, and sexuality.
The subject’s squatting posture, with her limbs contorted and gaze averted, creates a powerful tension—simultaneously intimate and provocative. Schiele’s use of expressive, almost frantic linework, combined with stark contrasts and minimal background, heightens the sense of raw emotion and immediacy. The piece challenges traditional depictions of the female nude, emphasizing psychological intensity over classical grace.
This fine art print preserves the haunting details and striking energy of Schiele’s original, making it a bold statement piece for any collection. Perfect for admirers of Expressionism, avant-garde portraiture, and artwork that confronts societal norms.
