Kokoschka was born in Pöchlarn. His early career was marked by portraits of Viennese celebrities, painted in a nervously animated style. He served in the Austrian army in World War I and was wounded. At the hospital, the doctors decided that he was mentally unstable. Nevertheless, he continued to develop his career as an artist, traveling across Europe and painting the landscape.  Related Paintings of oskar kokoschka :. | Bridge of Arcole | Classical hunting fox, Equestrian and Beautiful Horses, 104. | Frontiersman | St Gregory the Great | Henri Royer Vue sur Montmartre |
