Influential, forward-looking Austrian artist (1890–1918) who takes a place among the leading figures of the Expressionist movement of the early 20th century. Schiele was among the millions of Europeans who succumbed to the Spanish flu during the epidemic of 1918. Scarce printed postcard portrait of Schiele by F. A. Harta, signed in pencil by Schiele with his “block” signature, “Egon Schiele, 1917.” Mild scattered soiling and few small, very faint spots, otherwise fine condition. Signed portraits of Schiele are virtually nonexistent as he was not particularly well-known during his lifetime; this piece was signed a mere year before his untimely death at age 28. An extremely rare and desirable image of a major 20th century artist.
