10 works across 3 institutions
New York holds 10 works by Egon Schiele across 3 institutions, including Metropolitan Museum of Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and Museum of Modern Art.
Schiele was a pupil of Klimt who developed a far rawer and more anguished style, producing intense angular figure studies that shocked audiences with their emotional exposure. He worked almost entirely in Vienna and died at 28 in the 1918 influenza epidemic, just as he was receiving wider recognition.

Planning your visit to New York
New York's major museums are spread across Manhattan — the Metropolitan Museum and Guggenheim are on the Upper East Side (4/5/6 subway), while MoMA is in Midtown and the Whitney is in the Meatpacking District. The Metropolitan suggests a donation rather than charging a fixed fee for New York State residents; out-of-state visitors pay the listed price. Allow a full day for the Met; the other collections are more manageable in a half-day.
