The powerful bond between man and woman is
eloquently illustrated by the renowned 20th-century artist, Gustav
Klimt. His paintings are large allegorical canvases which combine linear
construction and rich colors often illustrating a world of beautiful
women and nudes against a bejeweled background. Now in the
Osterreichische Galerie, Wien. The ornamental facade seems to hide a
pure almost esoteric feeling of felicity, portrayed in a classical
manner, nestling in a bed of flowers. In accordance with the Jugendstil
tradition, these lovers appear to be detached from the world. An
impression that is reinforced by the application of shades of gold and
gold leaf.
