About the piece

Painted in 1911, 'Small Tree in Late Autumn' showcases Egon Schiele’s unique ability to imbue nature with human-like tension. The spindly tree rises from a dark, earthy mound, its branches reaching out in sharp, rhythmic angles against a muted, atmospheric sky. This work is a masterclass in Schiele's expressive, line-driven style, making it a sophisticated addition to a gallery wall or study.
