"Portrait of Arnold Schönberg" is an expressionist painting by the Austrian artist Richard Gerstl, created in 1907. The artwork is a significant piece as it captures the likeness of the influential composer Arnold Schönberg, known for his pivotal role in the development of atonal and twelve-tone music. Gerstl, who was associated with the early expressionist movement in Vienna, was known for his intense and emotionally charged portraits, and this work is no exception.

The painting is notable for its bold use of color and brushwork, which reflects the avant-garde approach to art that was emerging in the early 20th century. Gerstl's portrait diverges from traditional representations, offering a more psychological and introspective depiction of Schönberg. The composer is portrayed with a penetrating gaze, and the use of distorted forms and a vibrant palette contributes to the overall sense of inner turmoil and complexity that characterizes the subject.

This portrait holds particular significance in the history of art, as it not only represents a collaboration between two prominent figures in the Viennese modernist movement but also because it was created during a period of intense personal and professional interaction between the artist and the composer. Gerstl was closely associated with Schönberg and his circle, and this relationship ultimately had a profound impact on his artistic development.

"Portrait of Arnold Schönberg" is considered one of Gerstl's masterpieces and is often discussed in the context of his tragically short career; Gerstl committed suicide in 1908 at the age of 25. The painting stands as a testament to the artist's innovative style and his contribution to the expressionist movement. It remains an important work for scholars studying the intersection of visual art and music, as well as the broader cultural milieu of early 20th-century Vienna.
