Crouching Nude in Shoes and Black Stockings - Egon Schiele

Painted in 1912 by Egon Schiele, this work is a striking display of line, colour, and form. The crouched position of the nude figure adds an element of tension and vulnerability to the piece. Notable for its bold use of colour, this artwork is a testament to Schiele's unique style that bridged between Impressionism and Expressionism.
