Gustav Klimt - 1862-1918 - The World in Female Form

Fliedl, Gottfried
2006. Taschen , Los Angeles, United States

This introduction to the life and work of one of the leading artistic personalities of the turn of the century has now become arguably the major standard work on Klimt whose fame rests on his reputation as one of the greatest erotic painters and graphic artists of his time. Nevertheless, this exquisite book (celebrating the 25th anniversary of Taschen's opening) includes everything from his early years of training with landscapes and portraits and yet actually there is only one chapter dealing with Klimt's famous Erotic Drawings.
