A century after his death, Viennese artist Gustav Klimt (1862-1918)
still startles with his unabashed eroticism, dazzling surfaces, and
artistic experimentation. In this neat, dependable monograph, we
gather all of Klimt's major works alongside authoritative art
historical commentary and privileged archival material from Klimt's
own archive to trace the evolution of his astonishing oeuvre.With
top-quality illustration, including new photography of the
celebrated Stoclet Frieze, the book follows Klimt through his
prominent role in the Secessionist movement of 1897, his candid
rendering of the female body, and his lustrous "golden phase" when
gold leaf brought a shimmering tone and texture to such beloved
works as The Kiss and Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I, also known
as The Woman in Gold.
