Anton Faistauer is one of the most important representatives of Austrian Expressionism, in which he strove less for the exaggeration of colour and more for its deepening in form and space. He understood his painting as an intermediate stage where random appearances meet the objective realm of ideas.
Particularly in his portraits of women, the fine balance between autonomous, powerful application of paint and subtle as well as unambiguous boundaries of form is evident. Clear, "lawful" structures versus haunting tonal colour painting lead to that special melancholy of the indeterminate that gives Faistauer's female portraits their own poetry of rapt sensuality.
