  • Gustav Klimt
    Jul 14, 1862 - Feb 6, 1918
  • Birch Woods - Gustav Klimt was an Austrian Symbolist painter and one of the most prominent members of the Vienna Secession movement. His major works include paintings, murals, sketches, and other art objects. Klimt's primary subject was the female body, and his works are marked by a frank eroticism - nowhere is this more apparent than in his numerous drawings in pencil.

    In The Birch Woods, Gustav Klimt offers us a poetic representation of a forest landscape, a true ode to nature. The work shows birch trees with silvery trunks and dark mottling, reaching for the sky. The leaves on the ground in autumnal hues, ranging from golden yellow to bright red, contrast with the bark, adding a touch of warmth to the composition.

    The painting technique used by Klimt shows a great mastery of nuance and texture. The trunks of the birch trees are depicted with precision, while the touches of colour that make up the foliage give an impression of movement and lightness to the whole. The viewer is thus invited to escape into this forest universe, both peaceful and enchanting, where nature unfolds in all its splendour.

Gustav KlimtGustav Klimt was born in Baumgarten, near Vienna, Austria. He was educated at the Vienna Kunstgewerbe Art School in the years 1879-1883. Klimt was also an honorary member of the Universities of Munich and Vienna. His major works include paintings, murals, sketches and other art objects, many of which are on display in the Vienna Secession gallery. His work is distinguished by an elegant use of gold backgrounds and mosaic patterns. This can be seen in Judith I (1901), and in The Kiss (1907). Art historians note an eclectic range of influences contributing to Klimt's distinct style, including Egyptian, Minoan, Classical Greek, and Byzantine inspirations. Klimt was also inspired by engravings of Albrecht Dürer, late medieval European painting, and Japanese Ukiyo-e. Klimt was one of the founding members of the Wiener Sezession (Vienna Secession) and of the periodical Ver Sacrum. He left the movement in 1908. He died in Vienna of pneumonia and was interred at the Hietzing Cemetery, Vienna.
