Painting Description
"Adele Bloch-Bauer I" is a painting by the Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt, completed between 1903 and 1907. The work is also known as "The Lady in Gold" or "The Woman in Gold" and is considered one of the most representative and celebrated works of Klimt's golden phase. It is a portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer, the wife of Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer, a wealthy industrialist who commissioned the work. Adele was a prominent member of Vienna's cultural elite and a patron and close friend of Klimt.
The painting is notable for its grandeur and the extensive use of gold leaf, which gives it a unique and opulent appearance. Klimt's style in this work is characterized by ornamental patterns and complex symbolism, which was influenced by the Art Nouveau movement and the Arts and Crafts movement. The portrait is also a testament to Klimt's fascination with the female form and his exploration of themes of femininity and sensuality.
The history of the painting is marked by its confiscation by the Nazis during World War II and a lengthy legal battle over its rightful ownership, which culminated in its restitution to Adele Bloch-Bauer's heirs. The case brought significant attention to issues of art restitution and the fate of art treasures looted during the war. In 2006, the painting was acquired by the Neue Galerie in New York for a reported $135 million, making it one of the most expensive paintings ever sold at the time.
"Adele Bloch-Bauer I" remains a symbol of Vienna's cultural heritage and is a highlight of the Neue Galerie's collection, where it continues to be exhibited and admired by audiences from around the world.
