The National Gallery Belvedere has the most impressive collection of paintings by Gustav Klimt. No matter what aspect of his art interests you, you will find his portraits, landscapes, and the outstanding works of his "Golden Period" at the Belvedere. You will not only understand Klimt's style, but also see how the turn of the century is reflected in the work of this extraordinary artist.
With advertisements all over Vienna luring viewers to the Belvedere at every turn to see "The Most Famous Kiss", on this tour you will understand what The Kiss is all about and decide for yourself whose arguments are more persuasive - art historians, marketers or viewers. We will trace Klimt's creative transformations from his early "Portrait of an Unknown Lady" to his unfinished "Bride," left in the studio when the artist was rushed to the hospital. Klimt has long been known as the portraitist of beautiful ladies, and we will see why scholars today believe that Klimt felt the desires of his models better than his contemporary Sigmund Freud understood the problems of his patients. On this tour we'll take an in-depth look at Klimt's work, surrounded by his peers and competitors, and see why this particular artist is so important to Vienna. If you not only want to see "The Kiss" but also find diverse meanings in Klimt's works, this tour of the Klimt collection in the Belvedere is for you.
