"Schubert at the Piano" is a lost painting by the Austrian Symbolist painter Gustav Klimt, believed to have been created in 1899. The work is significant as it represents Klimt's early foray into the realm of historical painting, a genre he seldom embraced in his later career, which was dominated by his iconic golden phase and his focus on female portraiture and landscapes. The painting depicted the composer Franz Schubert at the piano, presumably playing for a small, intimate audience, a scene that evokes the private musical gatherings, known as Schubertiades, that were popular among the composer's circle of friends during his lifetime.

While the original painting has been lost and is known to us only through black and white photographs, these images suggest that Klimt's composition was rich in detail and emotional depth. The loss of the original artwork means that much of the color and texture that Klimt is renowned for cannot be fully appreciated or analyzed. Nevertheless, the surviving photographs provide insight into Klimt's early artistic style and his ability to convey the cultural milieu of early 19th-century Vienna.

"Schubert at the Piano" is often discussed in the context of Klimt's artistic development, as it predates his involvement with the Vienna Secession, an art movement that sought to break away from the traditional academic art of the time. The painting's subject matter reflects Klimt's interest in music and the arts, themes that would recur throughout his career, albeit in different stylistic manifestations.

Due to the painting's destruction, presumably during World War II, "Schubert at the Piano" occupies a somewhat mythic status in Klimt's oeuvre. It is remembered as a testament to the artist's early potential and as a bridge between his academic training and his later, more revolutionary, artistic achievements. The work remains an important piece in the study of Klimt's body of work and continues to be a subject of interest for art historians and enthusiasts of Viennese modernism.
