Gustav Klimt

(1862-1918)

 

Emilie Floge was one of Klimt's favorite models and mistresses and she appears in several of his paintings -- this is a detail from one of Klimt's paintings.

The portrayal of the mating of Danae and Zeus in the procreation of Perseus is an erotic of image of Danae alone with rivers of gold flowing between her thighs with manhood reduced to a nominal black black-line.
The most famous Klimt of all -- The Kiss - bought by the State as soon as it was shown.
The Jungfrau -- a melange of bodies and colors
