Cardinal and Nun
Yesterday we saw an exhibition of Egon Schiele's work at the Leopold Museum. This Cardinal and Nun enjoying an illicit moment was so startling: the pyramid of red and their praying hands and the nun being so like the background. I confess I havn't even thought once about Schiele since my A levels, which is a long time ago and which is lazy.

I love the rawness of Schiele, the chill of his feet, the awkward boniness, the heat of his passion, and the scarlet Pyramid is fab.
