Original public domain art from Museum of Modern Art, digitally enhanced. Drypoint from a portfolio of six drypoints and two lithographs.

The 'Portrait of Arthur Roessler' (Bildnis Arthur Roessler) comes from 'The Graphic Work of Egon Schiele' (Das Graphische Werk von Egon Schiele) published 1922.

In this work Egon Schiele explored his typical genres, nudes and psychologically penetrating portraits, in the medium of printmaking. Schiele carefully manipulated the sinuous lines of the famous bronze sculpture 'Kauernde' after observing nudes in the studio. The compositions of this print and another 'Kümmernis' are closely related to two of his paintings of mothers, potent symbols for artistic creation in his work, while the portraits of Arthur Roessler here, and Franz Hauer honour two of his most important patrons. 

Schiele made only seventeen prints during his abbreviated career. Roessler had encouraged him try the medium, touting its financial rewards and the access it gave to the lucrative German art market. Roessler provided the plates for the prints in this portfolio, and Schiele incised them in 1914, although none were published during his lifetime. Four years after Schiele's untimely death from influenza in 1918, Otto Nirenstein acquired the artist's prints for publication by the Verlag Neuer Graphik, the fine arts imprint of the Rikola Verlag in Vienna.

'Das Graphische Werk von Egon Schiele' contains Schiele's last two lithographs and his entire oeuvre of six drypoints.

CLICK FOR TIPS

When buying artworks figure out what you like. If you're just buying something you love, it's not difficult to make a decision!

If you hang an artwork at home and it doesn’t feel right, move it. Try putting it in different places, and see if it strikes an interesting dialogue with other works on your wall. Smaller artworks often work well near light switches, or hung low over a small piece of furniture like a bedside table.

Grouping works together can be really effective. Test out a group of frames by arranging them on the floor or a table top. If you’re feeling pro, use masking tape to mark out your very own tightly packed grouping!

Understand that size does matter. You can track your purchase. Explore with Vireous Shop!
