Albin Egger-lienz

Although he doesn’t fit in with most of the other artists I am fond of, I find Albin Egger-lienz’s work to be quite appealing. 
The quality to his paintings show a mixture of both a, simplistic yet detailed nature, the use of dull and abysmal colour in his work, based around war, reflect the emotions he was trying to display, and add a certain allure to his collection.





I find this image to be the most appealing, his use off composition of the subject allows the viewers’ attention to gravitate to the subject of the piece, without distracting them with unnecessary clutter.
The subject’s brutish appearance and almost blank expression also adds to the pieces’ allure.
