"Mountain Torrent" (German: "Gebirgsbach") is a painting by the Austrian Expressionist artist Egon Schiele, created in 1918, the year of his untimely death. Known for his intense and emotionally charged works, Schiele's "Mountain Torrent" is a testament to his artistic evolution and his exploration of natural landscapes as a subject matter. This painting diverges from his more famous figurative works, which often focus on human sexuality and existential angst, showcasing instead his ability to capture the raw power and dynamism of nature.

The painting features a turbulent stream, possibly inspired by the landscape around Krumau or Neulengbach, where Schiele spent significant periods of his life. The composition is characterized by swirling lines and a bold use of color, which convey the movement and force of the water as it courses through the rocky terrain. Schiele's brushwork in "Mountain Torrent" is vigorous and expressive, reflecting the influence of Van Gogh and the broader Expressionist movement's emphasis on the artist's emotional response to the subject.

"Mountain Torrent" is also notable for its reflection of Schiele's personal circumstances at the time of its creation. The year 1918 was marked by personal tragedy for Schiele, with the death of his wife Edith from the Spanish flu, followed by his own death from the same illness just three days later. This context adds a layer of poignancy to the work, as it can be interpreted as an allegory for the tumultuous events of the artist's final year.

As with many of Schiele's works, "Mountain Torrent" is appreciated for its contribution to the development of modern art in the early 20th century. It exemplifies the shift away from traditional landscape painting and towards a more subjective, emotionally resonant portrayal of nature. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and critics and is considered an important piece within Schiele's oeuvre.

"Mountain Torrent" is part of a public or private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art galleries and museums around the world. Its influence extends beyond the realm of art history, as it continues to inspire contemporary artists and captivate audiences with its raw depiction of nature's power and beauty.
