ANTON JOSEPH TRCKA. egon schiele

Egon Schiele. Artist: Anton Joseph Trcka (Austrian, 1893-1940). Dimensions: Image: 22.6 x 15.3 cm (8 7/8 x 6 in.). Date: 1914.
Between the turn of the twentieth century and the outbreak of World War I, Vienna was a city of remarkable cultural transformation. Inhabited by many of the most progressive intellectual figures of the modern era, the Austrian capital was home to the designers of the Wiener Werkstätte and the Secessionist style exemplified by Gustav Klimt; the site of Sigmund Freud's infamous couch and the backdrop for the development of his psychoanalytic theories; the birthplace of a revolution in music composition heard in the works of Arnold Schoenberg and Anton von Webern; and the setting for Adolf Loos's and Josef Hoffmann's bold experiments in new architecture and design. Vienna was also the residence of the painter Egon Schiele (1890-1918), whose tragically short life and obsession with self-portraiture and erotic depictions of the female body are legendary.
Schiele is seen here in a rare portrait by Trcka, a Viennese painter and photographer of Czech extraction who signed his works "Antios." Trcka 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 Trcka of his original hand-titled bromoil print.

Descripción:
Traducción automática: Egon Schiele. Artista: Anton Joseph Trcka (Austria, 1893-1940). Dimensiones: Imagen: 22,6 x 15,3 cm (8 7/8 x 6 pulg.). Fecha: 1914. Entre principios del siglo XX y el estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial, Viena fue una ciudad de notable transformación cultural. Habitada por muchas de las figuras intelectuales más progresistas de la era moderna, la capital austriaca fue el hogar de los diseñadores de Wiener Werkstätte y el estilo secesionista ejemplificado por Gustav Klimt; el sitio del infame diván de Sigmund Freud y el telón de fondo para el desarrollo de sus teorías psicoanalíticas; el lugar de nacimiento de una revolución en la composición musical que se escucha en las obras de Arnold Schoenberg y Anton von Webern; y el escenario de los audaces experimentos de Adolf Loos y Josef Hoffmann en nueva arquitectura y diseño. Viena también fue la residencia del pintor Egon Schiele (1890-1918), cuya vida trágicamente breve y obsesión por los autorretratos y las representaciones eróticas del cuerpo femenino son legendarias. Schiele se ve aquí en un raro retrato de Trcka, un pintor y fotógrafo vienés de ascendencia checa que firmó sus obras como "Antios". Trcka sigue siendo una figura misteriosa, ya que prácticamente todo el trabajo de su vida fue destruido después de que una bomba aliada dañara su estudio lleno de arte en 1944, cuatro años después de su muerte. El artista experimentó con nuevas técnicas fotográficas, incluido el proceso de bromoil, y con frecuencia aplicó títulos a las superficies manipuladas de sus retratos. Esta fotografía es una copia hecha por Trcka de su grabado original en bromoil titulado a mano.
