"El Beso" (The Kiss) is a renowned oil painting with added gold leaf, silver, and platinum by the Austrian Symbolist painter Gustav Klimt. Painted between 1907 and 1908, the work is a highpoint of Klimt's so-called "Golden Phase," during which he incorporated gold leaf into his paintings. It is widely considered a masterpiece of the early modern period and a symbol of Viennese Art Nouveau.

The painting depicts a couple embracing, their bodies entwined in elaborate robes decorated in a style influenced by the contemporary Art Nouveau style and the organic forms of the earlier Arts and Crafts movement. The work is composed of conventional oil paint with layers of gold leaf, giving it a strikingly modern, yet evocative appearance. The man's robe is adorned with rectangular shapes and a crown of vines, while the woman's dress is embellished with circular motifs. The two are situated against a plain, gold background that shines with a lustrous sheen, highlighting the intimacy of the figures.

Measuring 180 cm × 180 cm, "El Beso" is square in shape, and the composition focuses on the sensuality and emotion of the embrace rather than the surrounding space. The painting is notable for its sensual portrayal of the couple and the intricate patterns that adorn their clothing, which blend seamlessly into the shimmering gold background.

"El Beso" is housed in the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere museum in Vienna, Austria, and remains one of Klimt's most popular works, attracting visitors from around the world. It is emblematic of Klimt's fascination with eroticism and the female form, themes that are recurrent throughout his career. The painting's significance lies not only in its visual beauty but also in its representation of love as an immersive, transformative experience, transcending the boundaries of the canvas and inviting countless interpretations.
