Many European artists in the later nineteenth century began to turn away from the naturalism that characterized Realist and Impressionist imagery. There was a new affinity for more abstracted visual languages, meant to express emotion or to explore the aesthetic possibilities of color and form. With the dawn of the twentieth century, spirituality, the trauma of war, psychological portraits, and the body all became common themes for a new generation of artists, particularly in the work of the Expressionists.Posted by Shea SpillerEgon Schiele (Austrian, 1890-1918).
