"Alte Frau" (German for "Old Woman") is a painting by the Austrian Symbolist painter Gustav Klimt, created in 1905. This work is one of Klimt's less well-known portraits, diverging from his more famous depictions of women that often exude sensuality and elegance. Instead, "Alte Frau" presents a raw and honest portrayal of old age, capturing the physical effects of time on the human body and the emotional weight of mortality.

The painting is characterized by Klimt's signature style, which includes a complex interplay of patterns and a rich palette, though it is applied here to convey the somber reality of aging rather than the decorative eroticism found in his "Golden Phase" works. The subject, an elderly woman, is depicted with a penetrating gaze that seems to reflect a lifetime of experiences. Her face is etched with wrinkles, and her posture suggests a certain resignation, yet there is a dignified presence about her.

"Alte Frau" is a testament to Klimt's versatility as an artist and his ability to empathize with his subjects, regardless of their age or social status. The painting offers a poignant commentary on the human condition, inviting viewers to contemplate the universal experience of aging and the passage of time.

The artwork is part of the collection at the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere in Vienna, Austria, which houses the world's largest collection of Klimt's paintings. "Alte Frau" remains a significant piece within Klimt's oeuvre, providing a contrast to his more glamorous and idealized portraits, and showcasing his capacity to address deeper existential themes through his art.
