Product Description
A leading member of the Austrian Art Nouveau movement known as the Vienna Secession, Gustav Klimt (Austrian, 1862-1918) produced works of startling power, symbolism, and sensuality. Neither critics nor the public were of one mind as to Klimt's work; his large-scale public works were not widely popular, yet he never lacked for respect, awards, and commissions. Many of those commissions were portraits of women from Vienna's social elite, and it is these works that would come to dominate his career. The twelve images in this calendar offer an exciting glimpse of a sensibility that brought dazzling, sensuous chaos to the staid field of portraiture.
