"Sonja Knips (1898)" is a portrait painting by the Austrian Symbolist painter Gustav Klimt. The artwork is a representation of Sonja Knips, a Viennese society figure and the wife of industrialist Viktor Knips. Painted in 1898, this piece marks a significant period in Klimt's career as he transitioned from his earlier academic style to a more personal and symbolic approach that would later become synonymous with his name.

The portrait is notable for its departure from the elaborate ornamentation and complex patterns characteristic of Klimt's 'Golden Phase.' Instead, it features a more restrained and naturalistic style. Sonja Knips is depicted seated, her gaze slightly averted, which adds to the introspective quality of the work. The use of soft light and shadow on her face and hands, along with the subdued color palette, creates a sense of depth and dimensionality.

This painting was one of Klimt's early successes in portraiture, a genre that would bring him considerable fame, especially among the affluent patrons of Viennese society. "Sonja Knips (1898)" is often discussed in the context of Klimt's exploration of the female subject, a theme that he would revisit throughout his career with various stylistic approaches.

The portrait of Sonja Knips is part of the collection at the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere in Vienna, Austria, where it continues to be an important work for both its artistic merit and its insight into the evolution of Klimt's artistic style.
