Product information "Gustav Klimt: Picture 'Portrait of a woman with hat and feather boa' (1909), framed"
Gustav Klimt achieved lasting fame through his portraits. He was regarded as the portrait painter par excellence by the Viennese upper middle classes, who were open to modern painting, and was thus able to realise his unusual and original ideas of portraiture in a number of commissioned works. The most famous is that of Adele Bloch-Bauer (the 'Golden Adele'), a painting that was awarded to the rightful heirs a few years ago and can now be admired in New York. The 'Portrait of a Woman with Hat and Feather Boa' - a portrait of an unknown woman, perhaps a prostitute - is similar. This central work from Klimt's oeuvre was also returned to the heirs of the original owner, Hermine Lasus, by the Austrian Gallery at Belvedere Palace in Vienna following a decision by the Restitution Advisory Board. Original: oil on canvas, privately owned. Brilliant reproduction in fine art giclée process, transferred to artist's canvas and mounted on a stretcher frame. Limited edition of 499 copies, with numbering and certificate on the reverse. Framed in a handcrafted real wood frame. Format 90 x 74 cm (H/W). Exclusively at ars mundi.
