Back to basics for a while. #Klimpt inspired. Angels of Dark & Light

Sometimes
I look at the Klimpt
print
and wonder
is this kiss love?
a surrender?
or sorrow?
right now,
I don’t know-
I don’t feel the hope
I once had
gazing
at the golden
embrace

With a little imagination one could understand how Gustav Klimt may have been inspired🎨😉

From the website: ‘Klimt presents Adele Bloch-Bauer in an ambiguous position—it is unclear if she is standing or is seated in an armchair that is covered in sinuous spirals. A golden and highly ornamented halo surrounds her face. Her flushed cheeks and vivid red lips convey the sensuality of the woman behind the portrait. Adele Bloch-Bauer’s hands are clasped together in an unusual fashion to mask a disfigured finger about which she was extremely self-conscious. Adele Bloch-Bauer is bedecked in precious jewelry, including a diamond choker, which had been a wedding present from her husband Ferdinand. (When the Nazis seized the Bloch-Bauer collection, this stunning necklace ended up in the possession of notorious Nazi leader Hermann Göring.) The form-fitting sheath she wears is adorned with all-seeing eye motifs set within golden triangles. The diaphanous cloak that surrounds her is studded with her initials “AB,” raised in low relief. The black and white trim at the lower left edge recalls decorative elements on pieces of furniture from Klimt’s studio that were fabricated by the Wiener Werkstätte (Vienna Workshops). The portrait has been called the greatest in the artist’s “golden style.”’

By Gustav Klimt (1862–1918), Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I (1907), oil, silver and gold on canvas, 140 × 140 cm (55.1 × 55.1 in). This work was looted by the N*zi’s and restituted to the rightful heirs in 2006. Now displayed at the Neue Galerie, New York City. #arthistory #art #klimpt
