Quilled The Kiss, Klimt Greeting Card - Artist Series

The Lady in Gold by Gustav Klimt, also known as Portrait of Adele Block-Bauer, was completed between 1903 and 1907. This painting was one of two portraits commissioned by Ferdinand Block-Bauer of his wife when she was 25 years old. The painting has a complicated history as it was stolen by the Nazis from the Block-Bauer family during WWII. Some have even come to refer to the portrait as the “Mona Lisa of Vienna”..
