This monograph devoted to Gustav Klimt explores the work of the master of the Vienna Secession through his portraits, landscapes, and large decorative compositions. It sheds light on the pictorial singularity of a major artist at the turn of the 20th century.

As a universal icon of modern art, Gustav Klimt is one of the most immediately recognizable and widely reproduced artists in the world. From The Kiss to the portraits of his Golden Period, his works have shaped a shared visual imagination far beyond museum walls. Written by Gérard-Georges Lemaire, an art historian and leading author in the field, this monograph offers a clear and rigorous reading of a foundational career, showing how Klimt, central figure of the Vienna Secession, helped pave the way for pictorial modernity.
