Now available again, this visually stunning collection of Gustav
Klimt's landscape paintings brings to light a lesser-known aspect
of the Viennese painter's oeuvre. While Gustav Klimt is largely
revered for his opulent, symbolladen portraits of the Viennese
bourgeoisie, these works were just one aspect of his artistic
expression. His landscapes represent an important facet of his
career and are a valuable contribution to the school of European
nature painting. For many years the artist travelled to the
Austrian and Italian countryside during the summer, where he took
advantage of the extraordinary light and spectacular hues to paint
and sketch landscapes. Among the most exquisite of Klimt's
landscapes are those in which he experimented with composition and
style. Accompanied by scholarly essays, the images reproduced in
this book comprise all extant landscapes from this brilliant
artist, proving that his mastery extends beyond portraiture and
revealing themes that appeared throughout his life's work.
