Austrian painter and draughtsman. A leading exponent of Art Nouveau, Klimt is considered one of the greatest decorative painters of the 20th century. His depictions of the femme fatale and his drawings treating the theme of female sexuality have assured him a place in the history of erotic art. He is remembered for his role in the formation of the Vienna Secession, the radical group of Austrian artists of which he became the first president in 1897, and also for the frequent scandals and protests that marked his later career. Often Gustav's drawings of nudes were very graphic, this one being a little tamer. Stamped on the back by the Lepold museum. Mounted and framed. The paper measures approx 12.5x8.25 inches.
