Gustav Klimt: Complete Paintings

Gustav Klimt is the superstar of the Vienna Secession. He made a mark on the movement like no other painter. His symbolist, allegorical depictions and erotically decadent portraits of women have come to embody the fin de siècle. 

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.
