Art Prints - Gustav Klimt
Gustav Klimt is an Austrian painter considered to be the founding member of the Viennese Sezession School of Painting in 1897. This school of painting broke from the academic traditions of 19th century European mural painting in favor of the more highly-decorative, Art Nouveau style. The Art Nouveau style is characterized with long, sinuous and organic lines, patterns and forms. Klimt expressed this style in his paintings using bold, flat, precisely linear and highly decorative patterns of color and gold leaf.
