Description
A woodcut print by Austrian Expressionist Oskar Kokoschka, depicting the Flight into Egypt. The stark black and white composition uses bold lines to convey urgency and anxiety.
Oskar Kokoschka (1886-1980) was an Austrian artist, poet, and playwright known for his intense Expressionist portraits and allegorical subjects. He developed a distinctive style characterised by agitated brushwork and psychological insight. Kokoschka's work often explored themes of human emotion, conflict, and the anxieties of the modern world. He was associated with the Expressionist movement in Germany and Austria. He fled to the United Kingdom during the Nazi era. His later work included mythic and religious subjects. This woodcut print depicts the biblical Flight into Egypt, where Mary and the infant Jesus flee to Egypt to escape King Herod's persecution. The composition is rendered in stark black and white, with bold, expressive lines that convey a sense of urgency and anxiety. Mary is shown seated on a donkey, cradling the baby Jesus, while Joseph leads the way. The surrounding is rendered with simplified forms and patterns, creating a sense of unease and displacement. The artist's signature 'OK' is visible in the lower right corner.

Artist Biography
Oskar Kokoschka
Kokoschka proposed to Alma Mahler within twenty-four hours of meeting her in 1912. When she later had an abortion, he pocketed a bloodied cotton pad from the procedure, saying it was his only child and always would be. He painted The Bride of the Wind (1913-14) as a double portrait of the two of them, then sold it to buy his own horse before volunteering for the First World War.
He was born in 1886 in Pochlarn, Austria. He was shot through the head in Ukraine and bayoneted in the chest in Russia. He survived both.
After the war, he commissioned a Munich dollmaker named Hermine Moos to create a life-size replica of Alma, sending detailed instructions about the feel of her skin and the weight of her body. Moos covered the figure in feathers instead. Kokoschka eventually staged a public execution: he decapitated the doll and smashed a bottle of wine over its head on his lawn. The police arrived the next morning, thinking he had murdered a woman.
The Nazis declared him a degenerate artist. He fled Czechoslovakia for London after the Munich Agreement and became a British citizen in 1947. His Expressionist portraits are among the most psychologically penetrating of the twentieth century: raw, agitated surfaces that seem to expose the sitter's interior state. He lived to ninety-four.
