''Danaë'' is an oil painting by Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt, created in 1907. As one of Klimt's critical works from his "golden phase," this painting stands out for its ornate use of gold leaf and its sensual portrayal of its subject. The artwork depicts Danaë, a figure from Greek mythology who was the daughter of King Acrisius of Argos and mother of the hero Perseus by Zeus. According to the myth, Zeus visited her in the form of a golden shower, impregnating her while she was imprisoned by her father, who feared a prophecy that he would be killed by his grandson.

Klimt's interpretation of the mythological event is characterized by a dreamlike and erotic quality. Danaë is shown in a vulnerable, curled position, with her eyes closed, suggesting a state of arousal and surrender. The use of gold and the intricate patterns are reminiscent of Byzantine mosaics and create a rich, textured surface that blurs the line between the figure and the background, emphasizing the ethereal and otherworldly encounter.

The painting is notable for its exploration of female sexuality, a common theme in Klimt's work, and its innovative style, which combines traditional symbolism with Art Nouveau and modernist elements. ''Danaë'' has been widely analyzed for its psychological and erotic components, as well as its significance within the broader context of Klimt's oeuvre and the art movements of the early 20th century.

Today, ''Danaë'' is regarded as a masterpiece of early modern art and continues to be celebrated for its aesthetic beauty and complex symbolism. It remains a subject of scholarly interest and is frequently exhibited in museums and galleries that showcase Klimt's work and Viennese art from the turn of the century.
