Egon Schiele, 1914

Anton Josef Trčka (Antios)

Artwork Title: Egon SchieleArtwork Title: Egon Schiele
Schiele is seen here in a rare portrait by Trčka, a Viennese painter and photographer of Czech extraction who signed his works "Antios." Trčka remains a mysterious figure, as virtually all of his life's work was destroyed after an Allied bomb damaged his art-filled studio in 1944, four years after his death. The artist experimented with new photographic techniques, including the bromoil process, and frequently applied titles to the manipulated surfaces of his portraits. This photograph is a copy made by Trčka of his original hand-titled bromoil print. (http://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/285639)
