Summary

Based on the life of 20th century artist Egon Schiele, one of the most provocative artists in Vienna. His life and work are driven by beautiful women and an era that is coming to an end. Two women will have a lasting impact on him - his sister and first muse Gerti, and 17 year old Wally, Schiele's one true love, immortalized in his painting 'Death and the Maiden'. Schiele's radical paintings scandalize Viennese society while daring artists like Gustav Klimt and art agents alike are sensing the exceptional. But Schiele is also prepared to go beyond his own pain and to sacrifice love and life for his art
