The geometric juxtapositions pay tribute to the Byzantine mosaics and the thin layers of gold sublimate the characters by enhancing their precious magic.
Hieratic deities, Klimt’s characters evoke religious icons in magnificent tracery of golden scrolls. The women are haloed and placed in majesty; they fascinate by their expressive power and embody the femininity.
The nature painted by Klimt is contemplative to the lakes that seem to admire their moiré reflections and the forest became columns of a plant temple.
In the line of Klimt, Egon Schiele has a more tormented approach in his hues as in his lines. His penetrating characters, lanky like puppets, flirt from Eros to Thanatos.
A dizzying journey with rich shimmers
in the works of these giants ... another way to look at art.
