The story, and remaining images, of his three paintings for the university. His Golden Phase reaches its peak with the portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer.
A brief look at other painters active in the Vienna Secession during the height of Klimt’s career. Includes Koloman Moser and Alphonse Mucha.
In the year ahead, Gustav Klimt, Ferdinand Hodler, Tintoretto, Egon Schiele, and several others: anniversaries which I will celebrate here.
