Gustav Klimt was the great master of the Viennese variant of the Art Nouveau movement known as "Jugenstil". His beautiful, ornamental, and often gilded paintings, as well as his remarkable depictions of women, have made him world famous. A part from his decorative Art Nouveau work, he made a great many refined drawings, mainly featuring highly sensual female nudes. The milieu and achievements of this remarkable artist are portrayed by highlighting: -- Vienna as a "total artwork" -- Jugenstil painting and Symbolism -- The heroic years of the Vienna Secession -- The celebrated Beethoven Frieze -- The Kiss, theme and variations -- The Femme fatale Owing to the richness of his palette and the stark drama of his paintings, Klimt's popularity continues.
