Egon Schiele, Standing Woman, Study for 'Portrait of Friederike Beer-Monti', 1914, graphite on paper, 19 in. x 7 1/2 in. (48.2 cm. x 19 cm.), Friederike Maria Beer, the subject of this portrait, is the only person to be painted in oil by both Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. An ardent fan of the Wiener Werkstatte, Beer recalled that all her clothing was designed by their fashion department. The Werkstätte's distinctive fabric patterns are recognizable in both the Schiele and the Klimt portraits. However, Schiele apparently had trouble building a composition around the? zigzag stripes of Beer's dress. Nine studies are known to survive: eight in pencil and one with gouache additions. Schiele tried out various other poses: for example, arms folded, or grasping her forehead. In this drawing, Schiele seems to have caught his subject in motion, perhaps shifting from one position to the next. The artist drew with stop-action precision and often captured his subjects on the fly. The pensive look on Beer's face here suggests she is focusing on some unseen object or is lost in unfathomable thoughts.
