Marlow Home Co. Woman by Gustav Klimt Tapestry
Description
This 1907 work by Gustav Klimt is the last, and many would say the most representative piece from his Golden Phase. This wall decoration has quite a history, having been appropriated by Nazis in World War II, and currently hanging in the Neue Galerie in New York. This is a defining work of the Jugendstil style and was originally painted with oils and gold leaf. As a tapestry home decor, the complex patterns in the golden background stand out dramatically and the face of Frau Bloch-Bauer, wife of a Viennese industrialist and famous patron of the arts, features proudly. Art Nouveau Design.
