The story of Dead City III
Dead City III is a small oil on wood, 37.3 x 29.8 cm, a variation on Schiele's repeated view of Český Krumlov (Krumau), his mother's birthplace, seen from the castle hill. It once belonged to the Viennese cabaret artist Fritz Grünbaum and has been the object of high-profile ownership disputes and court battles.

Egon Schiele
Egon Leo Adolf Ludwig Schiele was an Austrian Expressionist painter. His work is noted for its intensity and its raw sexuality, and for the many self-portraits the artist produced, including nude self-portraits. The twisted body shapes and the expressive line that characterise Schiele's paintings and drawings mark the artist as an early exponent of Expressionism. Gustav Klimt, a figurative painter of the early 20th century, was a mentor to Schiele.
