Chicago's Art Institute of Chicago holds 1 work by Egon Schiele (1890–1918) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.

Schiele's drawings and paintings of figures — angular, exposed, often anguished — have an emotional directness that is difficult to look at and impossible to forget. In person, the line quality of his work is extraordinary: precise, searching, and charged with psychological intensity.
