'Double Self Portrait' and 'Crouching Figure' are amazing.

Egon Scheile is awesome. My girlfriend has a book of his stuff. We saw a book of his landscapes recently that I might end up buying for her.

yeah, some klimt.
schiele's work is so much more in an expressionist vein.
especially his figure work.
love it.

Don't you think that Klimt looked like a really nice person? I wish he lived in my building just so I could say "Hi" to him on the stairs.
