Gustav Klimt's mysterious African prince portrait – DW – 03/21/2025 Gustav Klimt's portrait of a West African prince is valued at €15 million and currently on offer at an art fair. But what's the story behind the painting?

Both during Klimt's lifetime and later, there have always been examples of an eroticizing aim to recreate his art or even go beyond it. Other authors have pointed out that the erotic could be regarded as a socio-political and culturally progressive force. Thus, Klimt is seen as an artist who contributed considerably to the emancipation of women and the rediscovery of the lost power of the erotic element, an artist who was critical of his time and its outmoded cultural morality. "Klimt's permanent achievement," wrote Han Bisanz in 1984, "is that he liberated the artistic depiction of human beings from the fetters of morality and opportunism and that he made visible by means of his style, the basic mental images of man's inner life, images that point to a timeless element in the course of a person's individual destiny. And finally, as the quoted passage seems to indicate, Klimt can be seen as a psychologist, as someone who analyzed psychological phenomena and who pursued similar aims to those of his great contemporary, Sigmund Freud. – gustaveklimt.com

Belle journée 💙🍃🌱☀️

Klimt vibes! I really wanted to do something about artists I love, more or less historical, so I started with a great icon. Which artist would you like to see next?
