Ceilings, wall frescoes or even friezes: Gustav Klimt likes large formats and the large buildings that he sets out to decorate. Did you say symbolism? Towards the end of the 19th century, a new literary and artistic movement was born in France. Let's discover the symbolism around key works from this movement. Mine gold! Klimt is above all known for his works covered in gold, dazzling with light. And he uses it for all his characters, whether they are holy or not! women's planet Whether at home or at work, Klimt's entourage is essentially female. So much so that it almost exclusively represents women. But who are they? Klimt's secret garden His most famous paintings are portraits of women, but Klimt also dabbled in landscape art, always with his inimitable talent. All Klimt in one work If we had to choose only one, a summary of all that Klimt does best, it would of course be this work: The Kiss. A breath of Art Nouveau At the end of the 19th century, a wind of change was blowing among the new generations of artists. They are inspired by plants, animals and untie forms: it's Art Nouveau.
