Printer: W. Drugulin, Leipzig.
From the Toledo Museum of Art:
When not creating paintings for exhibitions and commissions, Gustav Klimt produced over 4,000 personal drawings and sketches. His drawings were frequently highly erotic—even graphic and sexually taboo—in nature. In them Klimt often rejected the decorativeness and detail of his paintings, working instead in a looser and more minimal style. The 15 drawings presented in this publication of Lucian’s Dialogue of Greek Courtesans, chosen by translator and publisher Franz Blei (who, as a writer, was known for eroticism in his work as well), are virtually unrelated to the text, as the dialogue discusses the role of courtesans (i.e. prostitutes) in society. Klimt’s drawings instead portray female eroticism in varying degrees of explicitness, a subject that would bring him notoriety and complaints of obscenity.

2018 marks the 100th anniversary of Gustav Klimt’s death. It is a fitting time to reflect upon the enduring legacy and deep impact of his art. Recognizing this need for posterity with uncanny foresight, the publication of Gustav Klimt: An Aftermath (Eine Nachlese) provides a rare collection of work after Klimt which has proven to be an indispensable tool for Klimt scholarship as well as a source for pure visual delight.
Approximately 25 percent of the original works featured in the Aftermath portfolio have since been lost. Of those 30, six were destroyed by fire on 8 May 1945. On that fateful final day of WWII, the retreating Feldherrnhalle, a tank division of the German Army, set fire to the Schloss Immendorf which was a 16th century castle in Lower Austria used between 1942-1945 to store objects of art. All three of Klimt’s Faculty Paintings: Philosophy, Medicine and Jurisprudence (1900-1907), originally created for the University of Vienna, were on premises at that time. Also among the inventory of Klimt paintings in storage there was art which had been confiscated by the Nazis. One of the most significant confiscated collections was the Lederer collection which featured many works by Gustav Klimt such as Girlfriends II and Garden Path with Chickens...
