Gustav Klimt Prints
Gustav Klimt Prints & Posters: Gustav Klimt was born in Vienna in 1862. He studied at the Vienna School of Decorative arts before going on to open his own studio. Gustav Klimt became renowned for his murals and paintings, which often featured undisguised eroticsim. His father was a goldsmith, and echoes of this can be seen in Klimts use of sumptious use of gold leaf and jewel-like colours. Klimt's destinctive use of shapes and decorative patterns harks back to his training in the art of mosaic. His painting 'The Kiss' is one of the best known art works of the twentieth century. Gustav became leader of the Vienna Secession, a group of artists who rebelled against the conservative art tastes of the time. The new style they developed is now refered to as 'Art Nouveau', and is characterised by intertwining, sinuous lines, and stylised depictions of natural forms.
