Gustav Klimt (1862-1918)

Gustav Klimt (1862-1918), Austrian Symbolist painter. He is best-known for his works executed after he joined the Vienna Secession in 1897 but to me his earlier works have considerable charm, if less boldness. Here are a couple of his lesser-known works, one early and one late.
