AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Portrait of a 19th-century woman with a beautiful carved wooden frame gilded with gold leaf.
The person depicted according to AI is Klara Klimt, born in 1860, the eldest of the six siblings of Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) and she shared an apartment with her brother and sister Hermine until Gustav's death. According to AI, the author of the work is:
Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) Austrian Symbolist painter, one of the most prestigious representatives of the modernist movement; he also encompassed historical painting, religious art, landscape painting, portraits, genre scenes and figurative art. Klimt painted canvases and murals with a highly ornate personal style, which he also expressed through craft objects. Intellectually aligned with a Romantic ideal, Klimt found in the female nude one of his most recurrent sources of inspiration. His works are endowed with intense sensual energy, reflected most clearly in his numerous pencil sketches and studies, in a sense heirs to the erotic drawing tradition of Rodin and Ingres. Klimt's work was an important influence on his younger colleague, Egon Schiele. In 1888, Klimt received the Gold Medal of Artistic Merit from Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria.
Condition: excellent with craquelure and small flaws normal for its age.
The frame is provided free with the sale of the canvas.
Canvas dimensions: 50 centimeters by 40 centimeters.
