After a short flirtation with Klimt's style, Schiele soon questioned the aesthetic orientation to the beautiful surface of the Viennese Art Nouveau with his rough and not easily accessible paintings.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Many contemporaries found Schiele's expressive nudes and self-portraits, with their strange movements and morbid colours, to be ugly and even morally objectionable--criticism which culminated in criminalizing the painter as 'obscene' and resulted in 1912 in an indictment and short jail sentence. However, not even his harshest critics could dispute the artist's extraordinary drawing talent. \u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Series: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Art Series features: \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ea detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ea concise biography\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eapproximately 100 colour illustrations with explanatory captions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"TASCHEN","offers":[{"title":"Schiele | Reinhard Steiner | Paperback | 9783822863275 | Used: Very Good | Art 1782106 (temp: 7)","offer_id":50521651642520,"sku":"1782106","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/61ENLoQrk1S.jpg?v=1790200994","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/schiele","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
