This beautifully illustrated monograph presents the complete catalogue of Klimt’s paintings, featuring new photography of the celebrated Stoclet Frieze. Tracing the Viennese master’s career—from his role in the Secessionist movement to his candid depictions of the female form and his radiant “golden phase”—the book explores iconic works such as The Kiss and Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I.

With authoritative art-historical commentary and access to the artist’s archive, the volume examines the diverse influences behind Klimt’s distinctive style, including Japanese, Byzantine, and allegorical sources. It also considers the polarized reception of his work, revealing how Klimt’s daring blend of ornament, symbolism, and eroticism secured his place as one of modern art’s most provocative and celebrated figures.

  • Top-quality illustrations, including new photography
  • XL format, with fold-out images

About the Artist

Gustav Klimt

Gustav Klimt (1862 — 1918) was an Austrian symbolist painter and one of the most prominent members of the Vienna Secession movement. Klimt is noted for his paintings, murals, sketches, and other objects d'art. Klimt's primary subject was the female body, and his works are marked by a frank eroticism.
