"Lady with a Fan" is a prominent painting by the Austrian Symbolist painter Gustav Klimt, completed in 1917-1918, marking it as one of his final works before his death in February 1918. This masterpiece embodies the mature period of Klimt's career, where his distinctive style, characterized by the use of intricate patterns, bold colors, and erotic themes, had fully developed. The painting is a portrait, yet it transcends the traditional boundaries of the genre by incorporating elements of fantasy, Oriental motifs, and an intricate background that is as significant as the figure it envelops.

The subject of "Lady with a Fan" is an unidentified woman, who is depicted against a richly decorative background that features an assemblage of Asian-inspired motifs, including dragons and lotus flowers, which were a testament to the European fascination with Eastern cultures during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This fascination, known as "Japonisme," had a profound influence on Klimt's work, as evidenced by the fan the lady holds, which serves as the central motif of the painting and a symbol of the cultural cross-pollination that defines much of Klimt's oeuvre.

Measuring 99 cm x 99 cm, the painting is a square format, a choice that Klimt often made for his portraits, allowing for a balanced composition that focuses on the decorative elements as much as the subject herself. The use of gold leaf, a hallmark of Klimt's most famous works, is notably absent in this painting. Instead, Klimt employs a diverse palette to create a tapestry-like effect, demonstrating his mastery of color and pattern.

"Lady with a Fan" exemplifies Klimt's innovative approach to portraiture, where the identity and personality of the sitter are intertwined with a universal symbolist vocabulary, creating a work that is both a personal depiction and an abstract exploration of beauty and sensuality. The painting remains a testament to Klimt's enduring legacy as a pivotal figure in the transition from traditional to modern art at the turn of the 20th century.

As one of Klimt's last completed works, "Lady with a Fan" holds a special place in his oeuvre, encapsulating the themes and stylistic elements that defined his career. Today, the painting is celebrated for its artistic significance and is held in a private collection, continuing to captivate audiences with its beauty and complexity.
