Plate 1 from the posthumous portfolio published by Ed. Strache in 1920, two years after the artist’s death. This phototype reproduces the famous 1913 self-portrait, one of the most iconic self-portraits of Viennese Expressionism. The raw, energetic lines and the striking frontal gaze illustrate Schiele’s uncompromising psychological intensity.
