Houses with Laundry, or Häuser mit bunter Wäsche (Vorstadt II) is one of Schiele’s most impressive and important townscapes. Two simple, almost festive wide-front structures set against a receding landscape face the viewer. The composition is flat – there is essentially no foreground or background – all objects appear to be at the same distance from the viewer. The painting is almost a schematic. In addition, Schiele doesn’t give us any specific indication of the exact location of these houses, we can only assume that because of his deep emotional and family connection the artist based this composition on the houses he saw in an old town of Krumau.

Jane Kallir wrote: ‘Schiele’s favorite landscape subject was the town of Krumau (today Cesky Krumlov), to which he referred most frequently as the ‘dead city’ (but also as the ‘old city’ and the ‘city on the blue river’). Krumau, his mother’s birthplace, was indisputably an old city, a medieval time capsule whose winding streets and crumbling buildings embodied for Schiele an eternity of human decay and persistence. ‘

Egon Schiele (1890 – 1918) was an Austrian painter and a protégé of Gustav Klimt. Egon Schiele was the 'enfant terrible' of the Viennese avant-garde.   Schiele's Expressionist figurative works on themes like budding sexuality, death and decay scandalised early 20th-century Vienna. The twisted body shapes and the expressive line that characterize Schiele's paintings and drawings mark the artist as an early exponent of Expressionism.   The Leopold Museum, Vienna houses Schiele's most important and complete collection of work.
