‘The Stoclet Frieze’ is a series of three mosaics created by Austrian artist Gustav Klimt between 1905-1911 commissioned for the Stoclet Palace in Brussels. ‘The Embrace’ is one of the mosaics from the frieze, which was going to be placed along three walls of the Palace’s dining room. The design includes a couple embracing wearing highly ornate robes against a patterned background which was decorated with a variety of luxury materials including marble, ceramic, gilded tiles, pearls and other semi-precious stones.
