From January 9th to April 30th, 2023, Egon Schiele's "Self-Portrait with Chinese Lantern Plant" and other works from the Leopold Museum will not be on display in Vienna due to an extensive Schiele exhibition at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum. It is the largest Schiele exhibition in Asia in 30 years. Until April 30th, the Leopold Museum is therefore showing outstanding paintings by Hans Makart and Richard Gerstl as well as numerous works on paper by Egon Schiele from its own collection in the permanent presentation “VIENNA 1900. Birth Of Modernism”, which have been expanded by top-class loans.

EGON SCHIELE, SELF-PORTRAIT WITH CHINESE LANTERN PLANT
1912

The 1912 Self-Portrait with Chinese Lantern Plant is now one of Egon Schiele’s most famous works, one that shows the artist at the height of his artistic prowess. A balanced composition with nothing left to chance, each line has found its continuation or a corresponding counterpart: hair and body mirror each other, trimmed at the horizontal edges of the image, with these dark sections balanced by the bright red-colored lantern fruits. In a further show of balance, Schiele’s head is turned to the right, with his gaze fixed directly toward the observer. The image’s composition is particularly defined by sharp lines and a virtuoso application of color. In this way, the artist presents himself as both fragile and confident at the same time. The work was conceived as a counterpart to his portrait of Wally Neuzil made at the same time, which explains the distinctively asymmetric composition.

EGON SCHIELE, PORTRAIT OF WALLY NEUZIL
1912

Most likely the best-known portrait of his partner Wally Neuzil, Egon Schiele painted this as a counterpart to his Self-Portrait with Chinese Lantern Plant. This harmoniously composed likeness shows Wally Neuzil with her slightly-lowered head, auburn hair, and oversized, bright blue eyes looking directly at the viewer. Particularly impressive are Schiele’s use of geometric shapes and the harmony of colors: orange and blue, white and black, red and green. The portrait exudes intimacy and tenderness, thus revealing the lovers’ closeness.
