"Prophets (Aka Double Self Portrait)" is a notable work by the Austrian expressionist painter Egon Schiele, created in 1911. This painting is an exemplar of Schiele's intense and emotionally charged style, which often explored themes of sexuality, death, and self-reflection. The artwork features two male figures, which are believed to be dual representations of the artist himself, hence the alternative title "Double Self Portrait."

In "Prophets," Schiele's use of sharp lines and contorted body shapes is evident, a hallmark of his mature work that reflects his departure from the more decorative style of the Vienna Secession movement. The figures in the painting are depicted with gaunt, elongated limbs and haunting facial expressions, which convey a sense of inner turmoil and existential angst. The color palette is subdued, with earthy tones and bold outlines that emphasize the rawness and vulnerability of the subjects.

The painting is often interpreted as a meditation on the artist's identity and his role as a visionary or prophet in the realm of art. Schiele's self-portraits are known for their unflinching introspection and the psychological depth they reveal. "Prophets" is no exception, as it delves into the psyche of the artist, presenting a complex interplay between his public persona and private self.

As with many of Schiele's works, "Prophets" reflects the influence of his mentor Gustav Klimt, as well as the impact of Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theories, which were gaining prominence at the time. However, Schiele's approach is distinctly personal, and his self-portraits are considered some of the most revealing and powerful of the 20th century.

"Prophets (Aka Double Self Portrait)" is a significant piece within Schiele's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its contribution to the expressionist movement and its profound insight into the human condition. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is frequently featured in discussions of early modernist art in Europe.
