Oskar Kokoschka and Egon Schiele were rising stars in early 20th-century Vienna, and their early work laid the foundations for Austrian Expressionism. Their rivalry is as exceptional as their networks and artworks. When Egon Schiele died in 1918 at the age of only 28, his attempt at reconciliation with Kokoschka having failed, the older artist still had six decades ahead of him, during which he would be celebrated internationally as a major Austrian figure. But he never escaped Schiele's shadow quite the contrary. With historical documents and art reproductions, the publication shows in detail the feud that these two artists fought.
