As one of the leading figures in German Expressionism, Schiele's self-portraits are known for their raw emotion and introspection. This particular piece exemplifies his ability to capture not only physical likeness but also psychological depth.

Through his meticulous brushwork and attention to detail, Schiele brings these hands to life, revealing a profound connection between the artist's inner world and his artistic process. With its modern aesthetic and powerful presence, "Self-Portrait with Spread Fingers" stands as a testament to Schiele's contribution to German Expressionism.
