"She hardly ever thought of him. He had worn a place for himself in some corner of her heart, as a sea shell, always boring against the rock, might do. The making of the place had been her pain. But now the shell was safely in the rock. It was lodged, and ground no longer.”
― T.H. White, The Once and Future King

Egon Schiele's most well-known muse was Wally Neuzil, with whom he had a complex and deeply personal relationship. Wally Neuzil, whose full name was Walburga Neuzil, was initially a model for Gustav Klimt, the famous Austrian Symbolist painter and Schiele's mentor. She met Schiele in 1911, and soon after, she became not only his model but also his lover and companion.

Schiele met Edith Harms, who lived with her parents across the street from his studio in Vienna, and they married on June 17, 1915. Unlike the passionate and tumultuous relationship Schiele had with Wally Neuzil, his relationship with Edith was seen as more conventional and socially acceptable. Edith came from a middle-class family, and her marriage to Schiele marked a new phase in his life, one where he sought greater acceptance within society and stability in his personal life.

Although it must be mentioned that even after the proposal to Edith, Egon suggested to Wally that they continue vacationing together at least once a year, but this was unacceptable to Wally. That romance was over.
