Klimt: Golden Modern
14.99 €
From the author of the graphic novel Audrey Hepburn: The Angel with the Sad Eyes.
Gold, ornaments and nudes – Gustav Klimt’s paintings can delight or amaze, but you will definitely not confuse them with any other.
Today, chastely hanging in museums, they were created in the heat of the artist’s battles with social norms and art critics. Passionate, scandalous and possessing an almost photographic ability to transfer what he saw onto canvas, Gustav Klimt combined in his works the monumental severity of historical painting and the sensual images of symbolism. But what inspired one of the main artists of Art Nouveau? How were the works born that still amaze our imagination?
Drawn with deep respect for Klimt's creative genius, this graphic novel is a historical reconstruction of Gustav Klimt's life from 1901 to 1907, from the scandal of the "Faculty Pictures" to the creation of "Judith with the Head of Holofernes" and "Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer". See the world through the eyes of a great artist!
